Muhammadu Buhari 'Be patient and vigilant,' Presidential candidate urges Nigerians

Tension and high anticipation rents the air in several parts
of the country, with die-hard and passive supporters of
political parties hoping their candidates will be declared
winner.
Violence has erupted in a few parts like Rivers,
Anambra, Bauchi and others as some are calling for
cancellation of the Presidential and National Assembly
elections in their regions
In the spirit of peace and civility, the Presidential
candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Major
General Muhammadu Buhari (rtd.) has urged Nigerians
to be patient and vigilant .
Buhari said this via his official Twitter handle
@ThisIsBuhari moments ago.
“Fellow Nigerians, I urge you to exercise patience and
vigilance as we wait for all results to be announced ,”
Buhari said.
The former military head of state had on Saturday,
March 28, expressed satisfaction at the conduct of the
Presidential election, while faulting some areas like Rivers
State that violence was recorded.
However, results that have been announced show that
Goodluck Jonathan won in Ekiti State while Buhari is
leading in Osun and Oyo States. The 10 local government
areas in Ogun State that have been announced also show
APC is ahead in the state.
Similarly, INEC Chairman, Prof. Attahiru Jega has
said that results have not been collated in 23 states,
dismissing claims by the spokesman of the Jonathan
Campaign Organization, Femi Fani-Kayode , who said
that PDP is winning the presidential election in 23 states
and has scored 64 per cent.
" I don’t know the sources of such information (that the
PDP is leading in 23 states). The results have not been
collated in 23 states. Fairly very few states have actually
collated. In fact, only two states have been
collated….There is the need to be careful about the
information being put there by people who are clearly
partisan," Jega said.
