Peter Mbah of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, as the winner of the election.  They have all indicated intention to challenge the outcome of the polls before the Governorship Election Petitions Tribunal.  However, in a statement by the Ohanaeze Youths National President, Mazi Okwu Nnabuike, he urged the aggrieved parties to jettison the idea of challenging Mbah’s victory in court.  Okwu said Mbah, having extended a hand of fellowship to his opponents, they should accept it in the interest of the entire State.  He said, “we are gladdened that the people of Enugu State gave their mandate to Barr.
