Atiku expressed his feelings at his Ajiya 012 polling unit, Yola, Adamawa, when he and his wife Titi Atiku, cast their votes in the governorship and state house of assembly elections on Saturday.

He said he was skeptical and expected nothing positive from the outcome of the elections, claiming that INEC had “refused” to improve on the earlier hitches recorded during the presidential elections.

He howeve called on Nigerians to come out en masse to vote for the candidates of their choice, adding “we pray for the best in this nation.”

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that Abubakar cast his vote around 11:35a.m.
