President Buhari Casts Vote In Daura, Displays Choice Candidate

President Muhammadu Buhari has casted his vote at his polling unit in Daura, Katsina State during the ongoing 2023 general elections in Nigeria.

President Muhammadu Buhari together with his wife, Aisha, cast their votes for their preferred candidates in the Presidential and Senatorial elections.

President Muhammadu Buhari who appeared more happier partially displayed his thumb printed ballot paper indicating he has voted for the candidate of All Progressives Congress, APC in the ongoing elections.

Meanwhile, President Muhammadu Buhari has strongly condemned the gruesome killing of Chief Oyibo Chukwu, the Labor Party senatorial candidate for Enugu East Senatorial District and his personal aide.

President Muhammadu Buhari in a press statement signed by his spokesperson, Femi Adesina on Friday said he believes that the perpetrators of this ignoble act, in Awkunanaw, Enugu South Local Government Area of Enugu State,
have no respect for human life and dignity, and therefore deserve the wrath of natural and divine justice.

The President affirms his avowed commitment to an election that is devoid of violence and rancor.

He reminds all political actors that it is the choice of the electorate that counts, and therefore all eligible Nigerians should boldly exercise their civic rights without any fear of intimidation.

The President directs security agencies to track down the culprits of this heinous crime, even as he commiserates with families of the victims, the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) and the Labour Party.

President Buhari prays for the repose of the souls of the deceased and comfort for those who mourn.

Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC had on Friday postponed the Enugu East Senatorial election to enable the Labour Party resubmit another candidate for the National Assembly election.
