Uzodinma emerged victorious in all 27 local government areas, while other candidates failed to breach the 10,000-vote mark.

INEC’s declaration implies a four-year extension for Uzodinma as Imo governor, pending any legal challenges. This victory echoes Uzodinma’s previous ascent to power in January 2020, labeled the ‘Supreme Court’ governor, following the nullification of Emeka Ihedioha’s win in the 2019 election.
