The Minister of Information, Lai Mohammed, has said that President Muhammadu Buhari did not confer any advantage on his ruling All Progressives Congress during the 25 February presidential election.
“It was the freest and the most authentic Nigeria had ever held; and that is despite the effort of the opposition to delegitimise the election.“That the introduction of technology especially, the Bimodal Voter Accreditation System, made it pretty difficult for anybody to do the usual things before like over-voting, stuffing of ballot boxes and the likes because once it takes your biometrics; you cannot vote twice,” he said.
