The APC candidate, Daniel Nuhu, polled 17,032 votes to emerge winner of the contest. He defeated Haruna Pai of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), who garnered 8,575 votes to finish second.
The election was held on Saturday across the ten wards that make up Kwali Area Council. Following the collation of results at the council’s final collation centre, the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) declared Nuhu winner in the early hours of Sunday.
Nuhu won in the majority of the wards, giving the APC a decisive advantage over its main challenger in the race.
With the Kwali result, the APC has now claimed victory in three of the four area councils where outcomes have been announced so far. The party had earlier won in AMAC and Bwari, while the PDP secured Gwagwalada. Results from the remaining councils are expected as collation continues.
Meanwhile, former presidential media aide Bashir Ahmad attributed the low voter turnout in the FCT council elections and by-elections in Rivers and Kano states to the ongoing Ramadan fast.
He explained that many Muslims tend to limit movement during fasting hours and devote more time to spiritual activities, which he suggested contributed to reduced participation at several polling units during the Saturday, February 21 elections.
