LIVE UPDATES: Anambra Governorship Election – 18 Candidates In Race To Succeed Obiano

It’s election day in Anambra State.

Welcome to our live coverage of the poll which will determine who succeeds Governor Willie Obiano as the leader of the state.

Eighteen political parties and candidates are in the governorship race and voting is expected to take place across more than 5,000 polling units spread across the 21 local governments of the state.

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) said ahead of the election that there are 2.5 million registered voters and 5,720 polling units in the state but there will be no voting in 86 of them because there are no registered voters there.
