Anambra 2021: Woman Gives Birth After Voting For APGA Candidate, Names Baby After Him

A woman gave birth to a baby boy today while casting her ballot for Mr Charles Soludo, the candidate of the All Progressives Grand Alliance, APGA, in the supplementary governorship election.

The woman, Mrs Ngoesina Mabia, soon went into labour after casting her vote for Mr Soludo and was delivered of the baby boy to the joy of people across the area.

When news filtered in on what had happened, reports say the Speaker of Anambra State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon Uche Victor Okafor, quickly paid a visit to the couple.

Other politicians and well wishers rushed to congratulate the woman.

The boy was quickly named after Soludo, the presumed winner of the Anambra State governorship election.

As at the time of filing this report, counting has begun across the polling centres where the supplementary election held.

The election spilled over to today following cancellation in Ihiala Local Government.

INEC is expected to announce the winner after the collation exercise is concluded.
