The Katsina State Independent Electoral Commission (KTSIEC) has declared the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) as winner in 31 out of the 34 local government areas of the state.

The Secretary of the commission, Alhaji Lawal Faskari, who made the announcement in the early hours of Tuesday in Katsina, said the election was not completed in Daura and Funtua LGAs.

He also said that election was cancelled in Dutsin-Ma LGA due to some challenges, saying that the exercise was peaceful in all other areas.
