    PDP Secures All 21 Local Government Seats In Adamawa

    The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has won all 21 council seats in the just-concluded Local Government (LG) election in Adamawa State.

    According to the results just released by the State Independent Electoral Commission, all the councillorship seats were also won by the ruling PDP in the 226 wards in the North-East state except the Demsa Ward of the Demsa Local Government Area where the New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP) won one councillorship seat.

    The Chairman of the Electoral Commission, Mohammed Umar, said the ruling party won overwhelmingly in all the 21 local government councils of the state. He announced the results on Sunday evening at the commission’s headquarters in Yola, the state capital.

    Umar said out of the 19 registered political parties in the state, 12 participated in the exercise.

    The Adamawa local government election was the first after the Supreme Court granted financial autonomy to the third tier of government, ordering the Federal Government to pay the 20.60% monthly allocation of the 774 LGs in the country directly to their exclusive accounts and not to accounts controlled by governors.

    The apex court in the landmark judgement on Thursday also barred power-drunk governors from dissolving democratically elected local government councils.
