February 25, (THEWILL) – President Muhammadu Buhari, who voted in his polling unit in his Daura hometown in Katsina state at about 10: 05 am on Saturday, caused a stir when he openly displayed the ballot paper for everyone to see in clear contravention of Section 95 of the Electoral Act.
Speaking shortly after casting his vote, he said he was very happy that the election had kicked-off peacefully, adding that he voted for his preferred candidate, whom,he said , he had told Nigerians during campaign for the party.
He said, “I am happy about what is happening. In Nasarawa, Katasina, Sokoto and all the places we campaigned, I mentioned my favourite candidate and I hope my constituency will support my candidate,”
The President, who was obviously referring to Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, however urged Nigerians to vote according to their conscience.
