The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has declared Professor Chukwuma Soludo of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) as the winner of the 2025 Anambra State governorship election.

Soludo emerged victorious after results from all 21 local government areas were collated, securing 422,664 votes out of a total 584,054 votes cast across the state.

His closest challenger, Nicholas Ukachukwu of the All Progressives Congress (APC), polled 99,445 votes, while other candidates trailed behind — ADC recorded 8,208 votes, and the PDP garnered 1,401 votes.

The State Collation Officer, Prof. Edogah Omoregie, who is also the Vice Chancellor of the University of Benin, announced the final results at INEC’s headquarters in Awka on Sunday.

Across the 21 LGAs, APGA maintained a clear lead in all, with strong showings in Aguata, Anambra West, Njikoka, and Ogbaru.

INEC said the election process was largely peaceful, though reports from observers indicated pockets of voter apathy in several polling units.

With this victory, Soludo is set to continue his tenure as governor of Anambra State, reinforcing APGA’s political dominance in the Southeast state.

The suit, lodged before an Anambra State High Court sitting in Onitsha, accuses Adeyanju of using his online platforms to circulate reckless and damaging claims against Obi.

In his filing, Obi is seeking ₦1 billion in general damages and ₦500 million in exemplary damages, alongside a court order compelling Adeyanju to issue a public apology for the alleged defamation.

Responding to the lawsuit, Adeyanju confirmed the development in a message shared with DAILY POST, saying he was “happy and relieved” that Obi had followed through with his legal threat.

“Finally, Peter Obi has sued me. I am actually happy and relieved that he didn’t chicken out in the end. Interestingly, he dragged me all the way to Anambra State, even though he is almost always in Abuja where I reside. But no shaking, we move,” Adeyanju said.

The case marks one of the most high-profile defamation suits involving a political figure and a social activist in recent months.
