Election Results

The Chairman of the Delta State Independent Electoral Commission, Jerry Agbaike, announced on Sunday that PDP candidates competed against various parties and emerged victorious in all contested local government areas. Notably, there was no election in the Udu Local Government Area as PDP’s chairmanship candidate, Vincent Oyibode, ran unopposed.

Councillorship Elections

PDP candidates also dominated the councillorship elections, winning 499 out of the state’s electoral wards. The Allied Peoples Movement (APM) secured a win in one electoral ward in Oshimili North Local Government Area.

Upcoming Swearing-In

The 25 newly elected chairmen are scheduled to be sworn in by Governor Sheriff Oborevwori on Monday, July 15, 2024.

Context and Significance

This election marked the second local government poll in Delta State following the Supreme Court’s decision to grant financial autonomy to local governments.

This ruling mandates that the Federal Government directly allocate 20.60% of monthly funds to the 774 local governments’ exclusive accounts, bypassing state governors’ control.

Bottom Line

The PDP’s comprehensive victory in Delta State’s local government elections underscores the party’s strong presence and organizational capability within the state, further highlighted by the recent judicial support for local government autonomy.
