Contrary to what was obtainable during the February 25 presidential election, there were low turnouts of voters in some parts of Borno State on Saturday.
“You’re bound to have low enthusiasm because, in the presidential election, people voted for something but got something else,” Bukar Tijjani, the PDP agent at the PU alleged.
On his part, the All Progressives Congress agent in the polling unit, Ahmed Mustapha, described the low turnout as pathetic. Modu Alkali and Musa Kolo, both voters at Vice President-elect, Kashim Shettima’s polling unit, Alhaji Kukawa PU 023, Lamisula/Jabbamari Ward, Lawan Bukar, said there was a clear difference between presidential and governorship polls.
