Commission Chairman Dr. Mamman Mohammed declared the results, noting that despite participation from other political parties, none achieved success at any level.
Certificates of return will be awarded to the winners by the state electoral body, with their swearing-in ceremony by Governor Mai Mala Buni scheduled for a later date.
Governor Buni, while casting his vote in his hometown, reiterated his commitment to granting autonomy to Local Government Areas, aligning with the federal government’s proposal.
“I am not opposed to local government autonomy. When I came onboard in 2019, my concept was to give autonomy to the local government. Unfortunately, about 6 out of the 17 local government areas can’t even pay their salaries, so the wisdom behind this joint account is to complement the efforts of the local governments with the state,” he said.
