APC Dominates Yobe Local Government Elections with 17 Wins

The All Progressives Congress (APC) achieved a significant victory in the Yobe State local government elections, securing all 17 chairmanship seats. The results were announced by Dr Ibrahim Yabani, Chairman of the Yobe State Independent Electoral Commission (YOSIEC), on Sunday at the commission's headquarters in Damaturu.
The elections took place across 17 local government areas and 178 electoral wards, with Yabani describing the process as “hitch-free.” A total of 10 political parties participated, fielding candidates for both chairmanship and councillorship positions. Voting concluded on Saturday, followed by ballot counting and result collation.
The APC candidates won in all councils, with notable votes including Musa Kalan Dagona in Bade (54,312 votes) and Baba Goni Bade in Fune (74,411 votes). Despite the APC's sweep of chairmanship positions, two opposition parties, the African People’s Party and the Action Democratic Party, won councillorship seats in Fune and Karasuwa, respectively.
