The candidate of the Young People's Party (YPP) in the rerun election for Orumba North and Orumba South Federal Constituency in Anambra, Chinwe Nnabuife, has been declared winner of the election by the electoral umpire in the country, Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).

INEC's Returning Officer for Orumba North and Orumba South Federal Constituency, Prof. Gabriel Anene, declared Nnabuife winner of the rerun election having polled the highest number of votes.

The Returning Officer, Anene, said that "Nnabuife scored 14,416 votes to defeat his closest rival and candidate of the People's Democratic Party (PDP), Okwudili Ezenwankwo, who scored 13,087. Also, Kanayo Eze of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) scored 10,479 votes.

The rerun election took place in 16 polling units of Nana Ward one of the Orumba South Federal Constituency in Anambra State.

The rerun election was scheduled by INEC after a court of competent jurisdiction ordered a rerun to determine the actual winner of the election. This is in cation after Ezenwankwo had challenged INEC’s declaration of Nnabuife as the winner of the Feb. 25, 2023, National Assembly election to represent the Orumba North and Orumba South Federal Constituency.
