According to reports, Chukwu polled 69,136 votes to defeat Nnamani of the Peoples Democratic Party, who scored 48,701 votes. Nnamani, a former governor of Enugu State, had endorsed Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, who is now the president-elect, over the Peoples Democratic Party’s Atiku Abubakar.

Despite being suspended by the PDP leadership for anti-party activities, Nnamani insisted that he was still a member of the party and took the PDP, National Chairman Iyorchia Ayu, and other party officials to court. However, Nnamani announced his exit from the PDP in a signed statement on Monday, citing irreconcilable differences with the party’s national leadership.
