By Correspondent in Minna.

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has declared the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate, Mathew Dogari Daje, winner of the Niger State House of Assembly bye-election for Munya Constituency held on Saturday, August 16, 2025.

Announcing the results at Sarkin-Pawa, headquarters of Munya Local Government Area, the Returning Officer, Professor Abdulkarim Ambali Saka of the Federal University of Technology, Minna, said Daje polled 12,556 votes to defeat his closest rival, Sunday Sabo Adabyinlo of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), who scored 5,646 votes.

The bye-election was conducted to fill the vacant seat following the death of former lawmaker, Joseph Haruna Duza, of the PDP.

Meanwhile, the PDP candidate, Adabyinlo, rejected the outcome, alleging intimidation of voters, harassment, and the use of state resources for vote-buying by the ruling APC.

In his acceptance speech, Daje thanked Governor Mohammed Umaru Bago, APC leaders, and party supporters across Munya for their support. He promised to justify the confidence reposed in him by working for the progress of the constituency.

Despite earlier security concerns over persistent armed banditry and kidnappings in Munya, observers described the election as largely peaceful and free of violence.
