Ngozi Okolie, a candidate for the Labour Party, and Ndidi Elumelu, a PDP candidate
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) candidate Ndudi Elumelu was pronounced the victor of the 2023 House of Representatives election for the Aniocha-Oshimili Federal Constituency by the National Assembly Election Petition Tribunal, which is located in Asaba, Delta State.
In a ruling issued today, July 24, the tribunal revoked the Independent National Electoral Commission’s (INEC) proclamation that Ngozi Okolie, a candidate for the Labour Party (LP), had won the election. Since Okolie was not a party member on May 28, 2022, the date of the party’s primary, the tribunal ruled that the Labour Party had not properly supported him.
It,therefore, declared the runner-up in the February 25, 2023, National Assembly, Ndudi Elumelu of the PDP as the winner.
