The Peoples Democratic Party has emerged victorious in all 20 local government areas in Bauchi State, according to results declared by the Bauchi State Independent Electoral Commission on Saturday night.
The win comes despite concerns raised by the main opposition party, the All Progressives Congress, that the ruling PDP and BASIEC might manipulate the election results in favor of the PDP.
The APC is expected to contest the results, citing potential irregularities, according to Daily Post.
The newly elected Chairmen are scheduled to be sworn in on Sunday, August 18.
