[MUHAMMADU BUHARI (APC) Embattled and determined leader ATIKU ABUBAKAR (PDP) Tycoon and veteran power-broker ] https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-47242168 [The ballot paper has to be extra long in order to fit on all 73 presidential candidates ] [For the second week running, Nigerians are getting ready to go to the polls to choose who they want to be president for the next four years. The vote was postponed on 16 February just hours before it was due to go ahead due to delays in delivering election material and deploying staff, but officials insist it will finally happen on Saturday. A decent turnout is expected, with more than 86% of voting cards having been collected by those registered to cast their ballot, and it looks set to be a close race between the two main contenders.] https://news.sky.com/story/your-guid...ction-11644768 Last edited by arista; 27-02-2019 at 05:01 PM. |
