The upload of gubernatorial election results to the INEC result-viewing portal by the Independent National Election Commission (INEC) has progressed beyond 70 percent for each of the 28 states that participated in the election.

When FIJ checked the website on Monday, there was no state falling below 70 percent in the availability of the election data electronically.

While none of the states’ results had been completely uploaded, INEC had announced winners in Lagos, Oyo, Ogun, Yobe, Katsina, Kano, Jigawa, Gombe, Kwara, Sokoto and Akwa Ibom.

As the collation process continues, Nigerians appear to be eager to know who will be declared winners in strict adherence to the terms of the constitution. However, some states seem of special interest to many citizens.

Adamawa State is in that special interest zone because of Aishatu Dahiru, also known as Binani, a woman who contested on the All Progressives Congress (APC) platform. Many hope she’ll become the first ever female governor-elect in Nigeria.
