Announcing the results, the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) constituency returning officer, Dr. Pascal Timtere said Yohanna of APC polled 24,126 votes, Micheal Zidon of the People Democratic Party (PDP) got 11,513 votes, and Kabiru Garba of the Citizen Peoples Party (CPP) scored 222 votes.
Others were Bitrus Alkali of the Kowa Party who got 400 votes, Dr. P.P Power of the People Democratic Movement (PDM) scored 6,320 votes while Anslem Olam of Labour Party (LP) scored 154 votes respectively.
However, Laori, who had defected from SDP to re-contest in KOWA party after his election was annulled, had reportedly secured an injunction from an Abuja Federal High Court, restraining INEC from conducting the election for failure to include his name as the candidate of his new party.
But the Commission’s spokesperson in Adamawa, Rifkatu Dikku, said INEC was not aware of the injunction as they were yet to receive such communication from their national headquarters in Abuja.
