    The agents of the main opposition party, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), and the Labour Party, have walked out of the National Collation Centre, where official election results are being announced.

    Dino Melaye of the PDP alleged that the electoral commission, INEC, had been compromised by the ruling All Progressives Congress party (APC): "We have evidence of Bvas machines malfunctioning in several states and we have asked the commission to provide us the state results on its portal as promised but they declined," he said.

    Inec chairman Mahmood Yakubu said he had full confidence in the results being presented by the returning officers from the states and would continue with the announcements.
