The NDC deployed agents to all polling units where it fielded candidates, ensuring close monitoring of voting, counting, and result transmission to ward collation centers. Ani expressed confidence in the party’s chances, citing the quality of its candidates who, he said, deeply understand the needs of the electorate. “For us in NDC, we are confident that we will win this election at the end of the day because we have done a campaign. We fielded credible candidates; we fielded people that understand what the masses want,” he declared.
He stressed that the party would await the official results declaration by ENSIEC before taking any further steps. “As it is right now, ENSIEC is leading in some areas. Of course, we can’t win all. But we know where we have fielded candidates that we are confident we will win at the end of the day,” Ani added. Meanwhile, preliminary results showed Chief Sunday Aniachi of the All Progressives Congress (APC) emerging victorious in Akpugo Ward 5 as councillor-elect, while the NDC secured wins in several polling units. The outcome underscores the competitive nature of the election and sets the stage for continued political engagement in Enugu State.
