 Observers Praise Peaceful Conduct of Zamfara LG Election


The Zamfara State Independent Electoral Commission (ZASIEC) has announced a landslide victory for the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), which secured all 14 chairmanship and 147 councillorship seats in Saturday’s local government elections.  


Election observers, led by Lazarus Nwachukwu, commended the peaceful, accessible, and fair conduct of the polls during a press briefing in Gusau on Sunday.  


The election, which saw the participation of 18 political parties, was monitored by a team of 47 accredited NGOs and CSOs, divided across the state’s three senatorial districts.  


“Our teams visited all 14 local government areas and observed that the elections were peaceful and credible, with voters turning out in large numbers to exercise their constitutional rights,” Nwachukwu noted.  


He credited the success to ZASIEC’s early distribution of election materials and adherence to due process, adding that political party agents actively safeguarded their parties’ interests at polling units.  


Observers expressed satisfaction with the election process, describing it as transparent, participatory, and compliant with electoral laws.
