Rivers State Governor Siminalayi Fubara, who served as the State Coordinator and Collation Officer, while declaring the outcome of the primary, commended party officials for ensuring a smooth conduct of the exercise across the state.

Governor Fubara said the successful outcome of the primary was a result of proper planning and coordination by party stakeholders.

According to him, the APC had a total of 297,068 registered members recognised as legitimate voters for the exercise, while 280,082 members were accredited and participated in the election.

He stated that after collating results from the 23 local government areas, President Tinubu secured all 280,082 votes cast, while the second contestant, businessman Stanley Osifo, recorded zero votes.

“I have taken time to go through the figures diligently, and I hereby certify that the information contained in this form represents the true, correct, and accurate summary of results from the 23 local government areas,” Governor Fubara stated.

The governor added that although the final results would be transmitted to Abuja, the outcome from Rivers State clearly showed that President Tinubu emerged as the winner of the primary election in the state.
