The presidential and National Assembly elections commenced across Nigeria on Saturday, March 28 as rescheduled by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).

Although many Nigerians turned out to vote, there were challenges of delay in the arrival of materials and issues with the operations of the card readers.

INEC has since adjusted the guidelines for the elections to address some of the challenges being faced during the accreditation process across the country and to ensure a successful completion of the process even if voting and vote counting runs into Sunday.

The INEC Chairman, Professor Attahiru Jega, has expressed gratitude to Nigerians for their peaceful conduct during the presidential elections and for exercising patience in the face of frustration.

Channels Television will continue to provide updates on the situation of voting across the country as further details come in.
