Ahiwe emerged Saturday at the special 2023 PDP governorship primary election at the Umuahia Township Stadium, Umuahia.

The election followed the death of the former candidate, Prof Uche Ikonne, who died on Wednesday, January 21 at the National Hospital, Abuja.

Ahiwe polled 469 votes out of the 516 cast to beat the deputy governor, Sir Ude Oko Chukwu (12), Mayor Lucky Igbokwe (12) and Dr Sampson Orji who scored 11.

A one-time chairman of the party in the state and Third Republic senator, Emma Nwaka scored nil while 12 were declared invalid.
