The Presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), General Muhammadu Buhari, said Saturday he was satisfied with the conduct of the Presidential and National Assembly elections nationwide.
Buhari, who acknowledged some hiccups in the implementation of card reader technology in the process of the election, said however that they were not enough to vitiate the integrity of thr election.
Bubari spoke with Journalists in his house in Daura, Katsina State.
He said that reports made available to him by his observers indicated that the election had been generally peaceful. Buhari commended the Independent National Electoral Commission for extending the exercise in some polling units till tomorrow.
The APC Presidential candidate, however, appealed to all his supporters to remain calm no matter the outcome of the election.
The electoral body had released an adjusted guideline for the elections, allowing the ad-hoc staff at polling units to accredit voters with the manual register to allow eligible voters with accreditation issues exercise their civic right.
General Buhari had earlier cast his vote at his hometown, Daura in Katsina State.
He is the strong opposition to the incumbent President and the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, Goodluck Jonathan.
