Hours after the conclusion of the Saturday’s Presidential and National Assembly elections in Lagos State, no single result from any of the 20 local government areas have arrived at the State Collation Centre as of 1.00 p.m. on Sunday.
Lagos state has a total of seven million registered voters spread across 13,325 polling units in the 245 wards and 20 LGAs of the state.
According to the News Agency of Nigeria, some stakeholders slept overnight at the venue of the state collation for the presidential polls, situated at INEC headquarters office, Sabo-Yaba area, while some arrived early morning to see the process begin.
Some of the stakeholders include domestic and foreign observers, media, operatives of various security agencies, and party agents.
