Former Rivers State Governor, Rotimi Amaechi, has emerged victorious in the African Democratic Congress (ADC) presidential primary held in Bayelsa State, securing a commanding 44,404 votes in a landslide win.
Amaechi defeated former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, who polled 6,570 votes, while businessman Mohammed Hayatu-Deen garnered 939 votes.
The outcome marks a major political upset within the opposition party, with Amaechi tightening his grip on the ADC’s presidential ticket ahead of the next general election.
