TRACKING>>Atiku Abubakar, the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), is currently leading in the Saturday’s presidential election in Imo State, to the surprise of many political watchers.
In the results of the 16 LGAs so far announced by INEC, Atiku has won 13.
He has so far got a total of 185,709 votes while Muhammadu Buhari of APC secured 92,702 votes.
The results indicate that Atiku won in Oguta, Isu, Nwangele, Oru West, Njaba, Owerri North, Ezinnihitte, Onuimo, Ohaji/Egbema, Owerri Municipal, Orlu, Aboh Mbaise and Owerri West LGAs.
Buhari won in only three of the LGAs, including Ideato South, where he secured his highest votes. The results also show that Buhari is still about 30,000 votes shy of the total he garnered from the state in 2015.
