The Action Peoples Party (APP) has won 22 out of 23 chairmanship seats in Saturday’s local government election in Rivers State.

The commission however suspended the declaration of results for Etche LGA due to ongoing collation in the area.

The chairman of the state’s Independent Electoral Commission (RSIEC), Adolphus Enebeli, announced the results at the Ministry of Justice Hall at the State Secretariat Complex in Port Harcourt.
