How APC, PDP, LP, others shared 109 senate seats (see full list)

With the supplementary elections out of the way, we can now reveal how all the political parties shared the 109 Senate seats in the red chamber of the National Assembly.

From the final results, the All Progressives Congress (APC) remains in control of the red chamber of the national assembly.

The APC has 59 of the 109 seats in the senate while six other opposition parties have 50 seats combined.

The ruling party has the best national spread courtesy of winning more than one seat in each geopolitical zone. The party has senators in 28 states, only falling short in Anambra, Bayelsa, Enugu, Kaduna, Kebbi, Nasarawa, Osun, and Rivers.

Despite its below-par performance in the south-east — its former stronghold — the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) remains the top opposition party with 36 seats. The party had a good outing in the north-west and north-east, producing all the senators from states like Kaduna, Kebbi, and Adamawa and most of the senators from Gombe and Taraba.

The impressive outing of the Labour Party (LP) in the 2023 elections earned the party eight seats — its highest ever in the senate. Save for Edo South won by Imasuen Neda Bernards, LP won all its senate seats in the south-east; the geopolitical zone of Peter Obi, the party’s presidential candidate.

Despite the re-election of APC’s Abdullahi Sule as governor of Nasarawa, the Social Democratic Party (SDP) won two seats in the state while the PDP took the third slot.

The New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) also won two seats; both in Kano, while Enyinnaya Abaribe won the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) its only senate seat in Abia and Ifeanyi Ubah of Anambra South ensured that the Youth Peoples Party (YPP) would maintain its sole representation in the senate.
