In a state controlled by the Peoples Democratic Party, the Minister of State for Petroleum Resources, Dr. Emmanuel Ibe Kachikwu, delivered his ward to the All Progressives Congress in the local government election in Delta State.
This was as one of the Electoral Officers of the Independent National Electoral Commission slumped and died as the election was in progress in Kachikwu’s ward.
The Electoral Officer slumped and died at Unit 9, Ifeyinwa Primary School, Onicha Ugbo, the home of Kachikwu.
The victory of APC in Kachikwu’s ward came as a shock to the people of the area as the state is dominated by the PDP.
