PDP governorship candidate, Siminialayi Fubara, is ahead of his counterparts after winning all nine Local Government Areas (LGAs) released so far in the ongoing collation of the governorship election results for Rivers state.

All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate, Tonye Cole, and Social Democratic Party (SDP) flag bearer, Sen Magnus Abe, trail neck to neck in the distant margin.

The results were announced by the State Returning Officer, Prof Akpofure Rim-Rukeh who is Vice Chancellor, Federal University of Petroleum, Effurun, Delta state.

The results from the LGA Returning Officers are coming amidst complaints from opposition parties’ agents who are calling for the cancellation of the exercise over claims of conflict between figures loaded on the IREV portal and those being delivered by the LGA Returning Officers at the collation center, among other irregularities.
