The inauguration was observed by Senator Bala Mohammed, the Governor of Bauchi State and Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party Governors\u2019 Forum.<\/p>\n

The Rivers State local government election was held on Saturday across the state.<\/p>\n

Results from the state Independent Electoral Commission, RSIEC, said the Action Peoples Party won 22 out of the 23 local governments.<\/p>\n

The Chief Election Officer of RSIEC, Justice Adolphus Enebeli, disclosed this on Saturday in Port Harcourt, the state capital.<\/p>\n

While declaring the results, Enebeli said the announcement was suspended in Etche Local Government Area because the results collation was ongoing.<\/p>\n

Enebeli clarified that the result of Etche LGA and the 319 councillorship positions would be announced upon the conclusion of the collation.<\/p>\n

RSIEC later declared Uzordinma Nwafor of the Action Alliance winner of the poll in Etche Local Government Area.<\/p>\n
