INEC has determined after the collation of results that elections are inconclusive in Adamawa, Bauchi, Benue, Kano, Plateau, and Sokoto states.
According to Section 26 of the INEC Act, the commission cannot declare a winner if the number of cancelled votes can mathematically affect the outcome of the election.
The only way to resolve an inconclusive election is for INEC to conduct a supplementary election in the areas where votes were cancelled.
The supplementary elections also have to be conducted within 21 days of the initial polls which is March 9, in this case.
Due to widespread disruption of elections in Rivers State, INEC has suspended all electoral processes in the oil-rich state until further notice. This makes it a total of seven states where it's unclear which party is in control.
However, the PDP is leading in five of the six states with an inconclusive election, leaving the APC leading in just Plateau State.
"Off season" states already settled
Governorship elections did not take place in Osun, Ekiti, Edo, Anambra, Kogi, Ondo and Bayelsa on March 9 because they had been conducted at different points that don't align with the regular election cycle with every other state.
APC governs five of those states (Osun, Ekiti, Edo, Kogi, Ondo) while PDP controls Bayelsa. Anambra is governed by Willie Obiano of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA).
With 29 states currently settled, APC controls 18 states while PDP has governors in 10 states and APGA has one.
