Kwara PDP Leaders Lose In Polling Units

Date: 2015-03-29

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) in Kwara State on Sunday announced results of only two out of 16 local government areas in the state.

The INEC spokesman in the state, Barr. Jacob Ayanda, said only results from Isin and Oke-Ero local government areas had arrived the commission’s headquarters as at about 3pm on Sunday.

APC lost Oke Ero to PDP but won in Isin.

However, results collated from polling centres across the state indicated the All Progressives Congress (APC) was in clear lead with most leaders of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the state losing their polling units in the election.

According to the collation, the PDP had won only in Oke-Ero local government area while the race for Ekiti, home council of the PDP governorship candidate, Senator Simon Ajibola, was still close to call.

Among those who lost elections in their polling units were Minister of National Planning, Dr. Suleiman Abubakar, Kwara central senatorial candidate, Alhaji AbdulRazaq AbdulRahaman, , Hajia Bola Sagaya and her son, Sherrif who contested the House of Representatives seat for Ilorin West and Asa federal constituency.

The minister lost to the APC in his polling unit with the PDP scoring 27 votes against 377 for the APC in the Presidential slot while PDP again scored only 29 votes against 386 for the APC for the senate and 35 votes against 385 for the House of Representatives.

On his part, the PDP polled 159 against 367 for APC in the presidential slot in AbdulRazaq unit, 265 against 278 for the senate and 313 against 227 for the House of Representatives.

Alhaja Sagaya also lost to the APC in her Ojuekun Sarumi 02 where APC polled 149 against 88 for the House of Representatives and 140 against 90 for the senate.
