Just in: INEC declares Adamawa guber poll inconclusive

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has declared Saturday’s gubernatorial election in Adamawa State as inconclusive.

The Adamawa State Governor, Ahmadu Fintiri of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), is currently leading with 421,524 votes, while the candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Senator Aishatu Dahiru Binani has 390,275 votes.

INEC, however, declared the election inconclusive on Monday due to the margin of votes, which is far less than the challenged votes in some areas.

This may necessitate a rerun in the affected areas, according to reports.
