ATIKU'S VICTORY OVERSHADOWED BY BOKO HARAM, HERDSM
update by SR Atiku Abubakar, presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), beat President Muhammadu Buhari of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Adamawa, securing 410,266 to his opponent’s 378,072. That's a gap of more than 10,000. However, after the figures were announced local government by local government, the PDP agent rejected Atiku’s victory in three local governments — Numan, Michika and Madagali — arguing that since the first had been plagued by herdsmen and the other two by Boko Haram, it was impossible to get such huge population of voters with Permanent Voter cards (PVCs). He insisted that the results were made up. However, he did not have the support of other political parties. NEC, meanwhile, has already accepted the result and is on the verge of making an official declaration of the winner at state level.
