The ruling All Progressives Congress has won the recently concluded chairmanship and councillorship elections in Katsina State.
Chairman of the Katsina State Independent Electoral Commission, Lawal Alhassan, while announcing the results at the commission’s headquarters on Sunday, declared that the APC won all 34 chairmanship and 361 councillorship positions, having secured the majority of votes cast.
Explaining the delay in announcing the results, Alhassan said the compilation could not be completed on the day of the election, February 15, 2025, as some local governments failed to submit their results on time.
The five political parties that participated in the elections were Accord (A), African Action Congress (AAC), African Democratic Congress (ADC), All Progressives Congress (APC), and Boot Party (BP).
