The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has declared the Zamfara State House of Assembly by-election for Kaura-Namoda South Constituency inconclusive.
Announcing the results at the Kasuwar Daji Collation Centre on Saturday, August 16, 2025, INEC disclosed that the All Progressives Congress (APC) polled a total of 6,999 votes, while the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) secured 5,339 votes.
This gave the APC a lead margin of 1,660 votes.
A breakdown of the results from the six wards showed the APC leading in four wards, while the PDP won in two:
Kagara Ward: APC 783, PDP 682
Saka Jiki Ward: APC 1,021, PDP 359
