Nigeria’s election ballots being counted after millions turn out to vote —BBC News


Votes are being counted in Nigeria’s tightest presidential election since the end of military rule in 1999.

The first results from the election are expected later.

However, following widespread delays and some attacks on polling stations on Saturday, voting has been postponed until Sunday in parts of the country.

In other areas, voting continued through the night.

Turnout appears to be high, especially among young people who make up about a third of the 87 million eligible voters.

This makes it the biggest democratic exercise in Africa.
