Delta Rerun: Uduaghan in clear lead

With five more local government results left to be announced, Dr. Emmanuel Uduaghan (PDP) is all but set to win the rerun governorship election in Delta State. He is maintaining a wide lead over his closest rival, Chief Great Ogboru (DPP). Official results from 19 LGAs show Uduaghan leading Ogboru comfortably, with a vote count of 203,949 to his rival's 89,817.

The result of Ugheli North, where another candidate, Ovie Omo-Agege (RPN) comes from, was cancelled by INEC for violence and ballot-snatching.
