OWERRI—Mixed reactions have started trailing the presidential result  announced yesterday by the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC.

Muhammadu Buhari

Presidential poll: I wasn’t sure who will emerge — Oshiomhole

A United States of America based attorney, Mr. Stanley Ozuzu, opined that “something is patently wrong with Nigeria’s electoral process.

“How can Nigeria religiously explain that we registered more than 70 million voters but less than 30 million people voted in the last election? This means that something is patently wrong with Nigeria’s electoral process”, Mr. Ozuzu said.

While saying that there were glaring irregularities in many polling centres across the country, Ozuzu also said that reports of funny happenings oozed out from collation centres.

“The presidential and National Assembly elections cannot be said to have been free, fair and credible. This is the worst election in the Nigerian democratic history. Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, loyalists are  encouraged to seek redress in court immediately, instead of engaging in violence”, Ozuzu said.

Mr Joseph Ugwuoke,   chairman of All Progressives Congress, APC, in Nsukka local government area said he was happy on the re-election of Buhari because it would bring more human capital and infrastructural development to the country.

“ Nigerians voted him for a second term because he has done well in the first tenure,” he said.
