The News Agency of Nigeria reports that with the victory, Ekweremadu holds the senatorial mandate for the 5th time.

Reacting to the development, the deputy senate president said he was humbled by the result because it was the first time a senator would be voted the fifth time in Nigeria. He applauded the Independent National Electoral Commission for the smooth and peaceful conduct of the elections. (NAN)
