Balanced News: Save Nigeria from danger over poll results – Obasanjo

Former Nigerian President Olusegun Obasanjo has urged the country’s electoral body to save the country from “a looming danger” over allegations of corruption of the electoral process. The presidential and National Assembly elections were held on Saturday, and the collation of results is being done at the National Collation Centre in Abuja. A former senator from Kogi West, Dino Melaye, and other party representatives walked out of the centre after raising issues bordering on irregularities in the process of the election. Obasanjo in a personally signed letter titled, “An appeal for caution and rectification,” released on Monday, said some politicians had compromised with some electoral officials to make the Bimodal Voter Accreditation System machines not work.
