The People’s Democratic Party (PDP) under the leadership of Governor Nyesom Wike; has swept all the 32 seats in Rivers State House of Assembly in a historic landslide victory over any opposition in the state’s political history.
The PDP is the incumbent party and among the eighteen political parties that participated in the just concluded State Assembly elections.
The election had earlier been postponed from March 11, to March 18,2023.
The postponement was due to the commission’s inability to promptly commence reconfiguration of the Bimodal Voter Accreditation System (BVAS) machines utilized during the February 25 presidential election to enable their use in the state elections.
INEC was earlier restrained from tampering with the information embedded in the BVAS machines until due inspection was conducted and Certified True Copies (CTC) issued to candidates who are challenging the outcome of the presidential election.
After the conduct of the election on Saturday, March 18, and collation of results in the affected units on Saturday, the PDP has officially won in all the state constituencies, leaving no room for any opposition party in the State Assembly.
The results were announced by the Returning Officers of the 32 constituencies.
