The All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) has secured every chairmanship and councillorship position in the recent local government elections held in Anambra State on August 29, 2026. Anambra State Independent Electoral Commission (ANSIEC) Chairman Genevieve Osakwe declared the results at the ANSIEC office in Awka on Sunday. According to Osakwe, APGA triumphed in all 21 chairmanship seats, while their candidates also emerged victorious in the councillorship positions across all 21 local government areas.
Osakwe affirmed the elections were conducted peacefully and fairly, highlighting the careful compilation and analysis of results by the commission to prevent any discrepancies. Although the APGA was the sole party fielding candidates in 20 of the 21 LGAs, the Young Progressives Party (YPP) contested in Anambra East LGA alone. No other opposition political party or their representatives were present at the ANSIEC office when the results were announced.
