President Muhammadu Buhari has defeated Atiku Abubakar, the candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) at his polling unit in Adamawa State.
Premium Times reports that wild jubilation broke out following the announcement that Buhari scored 186 votes to defeat Abubakar.
Abubakar’s loyalists have however noted that the unit has been historically won by Buhari, who has stood in every presidential election since 2003.
The results from Abubakar’s polling unit are among some of the early returns trickling in from across the country in today’s presidential and federal parliamentary elections.
