The 2023 Akwa Ibom State House of Assembly election took place on 11 March 2023, to elect members of the Akwa Ibom State House of Assembly. The election was held concurrent with the state gubernatorial election as well as twenty-seven other gubernatorial elections and elections to all other state houses of assembly.[1][2] It was held three weeks after the presidential election and National Assembly elections.

Electoral system

The members of state Houses of Assembly are elected using first-past-the-post voting in single-member constituencies.

Background

In the previous House of Assembly elections, the PDP won a sizeable majority that elected Aniekan Bassey (PDP-Uruan) as Speaker.[3] In other Akwa Ibom elections, incumbent Governor Udom Gabriel Emmanuel (PDP) won in a landslide. The PDP was also successful federally, unseating all APC senators and house members to sweep all three senates and ten House of Representatives seats as the state was easily won by PDP presidential nominee Atiku Abubakar with about 68% but still swung towards the APC and had lower turnout.

Key events during the legislative term included the belated swearing-in of the Assembly's sole APC member—Effiong Johnson[b] (Mbo)—in December 2019, reports on systemic misappropriation of public funds and corruption by the Assembly, and votes on various constitutional amendments in July 2022.[4][5][6][7]

Notes

  1. ^ a b The 2019 election in the PDP-held constituency of Essien Udim was partially voided and a supplementary election was called. Although the PDP retained the seat in the supplementary election, the elections were held in early 2020 so the party's 2019 total is 24 seats.
  2. ^ a b This Assembly member was elected as a member of the APC but switched to the PDP during their term.
  3. ^ The 2019 election in the constituency of Essien Udim was partially voided and a supplementary election was called. As the supplementary election was held in early 2020, the post-2019 elections vacancy total is 1 seat.
  4. ^ a b The positions of MHA Usoro Akpanusoh (YPP-Esit Eket/Ibeno) and MHA Asuquo Nana Udo (YPP-Ikono) is unclear due to their removal from the Assembly in September 2022 after their defection to the YPP.[10][11] However, after the removal, Akpanusoh and Udo approached the judiciary to retain their seats.
  5. ^ a b This Assembly member was elected as a member of the PDP but switched to the YPP during their term.

In mass spectrometry, direct analysis in real time (DART) is an ion source that produces electronically or vibronically excited-state species from gases such as helium, argon, or nitrogen that ionize atmospheric molecules or dopant molecules. The ions generated from atmospheric or dopant molecules undergo ion-molecule reactions with the sample molecules to produce analyte ions. Analytes with low ionization energy may be ionized directly. The DART ionization process can produce positive or negati…
