NIGERIAN VOTERS' VIEWS
Sha'aya'u Aminu
The more thugs you have, the more votes you have

There were long queues but it was peaceful.

Materials were delivered late - around noon - so I went around 1300 and I voted at about 1500 .

I witnessed voting and there was a massive turnout.

But many waiting in the queue around me were complaining that they were having to wait so long and that there was no point.

But what can we do?

I hope and pray that in the future we will be able to vote for credible leaders that are democratically elected.
