The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) in Yobe State has declared Ibrahim Bomai of the All Progressives Congress (APC), as the duly elected Senator representing Yobe South Senatorial District.
Announcing the result on Saturday at the Federal College of Education (Technical) Potiskum, the Returning Officer, Abatcha Melemi said Bomai polled 69,596 votes to defeat his closest opponent of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), Halilu Mazagane who polled 68,885 votes.
INEC had earlier declared the election in the district inconclusive, resulting from over voting at Manawachi polling unit in the Fika Local Government Area of the state.
The Returning Officer, who could not entertain questions, told journalists that his mandate was just to declare the winner.
