Xaero is correct. Udina is canon on the Council As Ironreaper mentions, in both Retribution and Inquisition, Udina is the human councilor. That's canon. What isn't canon is if Udina was the councilor the entire time, or if Anderson was at first and was later replaced by Udina. If it had only been stated in one source, I'd be willing to consider your argument that "its an error in the writing that should be ignored", but it isn't. It's two sources by two different authors, who just happen to be the lead writers of Mass Effect and Mass Effect 2.
