Declaring Preyor winner at St. Brendan College Bomadi, venue of the primaries, the returning officer, Hon. Deinghan Macauley, said that the electoral process was free, fair and unprecedented.

“That is the reason you are seeing this type of free, fair and transparent primaries across the state”, he said.
