APC secured four of the five seats, with the Allied Peoples Movement winning the Sakwa State Constituency seat in Bauchi. The victories were attributed to the confidence placed in the party and its candidates by the electorate, and the chairman urged the victorious candidates to remain committed to their constituents.",
