As early results for the presidential, senate and house of representatives elections were tallied at six significant polling places in Abuja’s NYSC Camp Ward, Kubwa, Bwari Local Government Area, the Labour Party established an early lead.
In polling units 004, 036, 037, 038, 039, and 040, it was noted that the Labour Party’s Peter Obi won the majority of the votes, followed by Ireti Kingibe for the Senate and the House of Representatives. This left the incumbent All Progressive Party, the Peoples Democratic Party, the African Democratic Party, and others scrambling for the remaining votes.
Voters showed up in large numbers at the six polling places, and they praised the Independent National Electoral Commission for conducting the elections peacefully.
In some polling places, especially polling unit 004 which didn’t start too early, votes were still being counted at 8:25 p.m., even though voting had started between 8:30 and 9 a.m.
