Prior to the election on February 25, President Muhammadu Buhari stated in a countrywide broadcast on Thursday morning that the Naira redesign programme has been somewhat successful in reducing money politics.
Also, President Buhari urged the electorate to cast their ballots for the candidates of their choice without hesitation, reassuring them that sufficient security would be given and that their votes would be counted.
He warned the populace to abstain from violence and refrain from any measures that would tamper with the electoral process.
