Collation of results at Ward and local government levels has begun in Thursday’s supplementary governorship polls in Adamawa.
The election is taking place in 44 units in 14 local government areas with 40,988 registered voters.
The margin of lead by the PDP candidate, Ahmadu Fintiri to his closest rival, Muhammadu Bindow of APC is 32,476 in the previous exercise, necessitating the supplementary exercise.
The voting was reported as generally peaceful across the state.
The Public Relations Officer of Adamawa Command of Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps,NSCDC, Suleiman Baba, said there was no report of violence anywhere.
The Adamawa Resident Electoral Commissioner, Kassim Gaidam, however, said that all the 29 political parties involved were communicated the new date on Tuesday shortly after the vacation of the court interim injunction that stopped the election from taking place on Saturday as earlier scheduled.
