Sule was accredited by the election officials and cast her ballot at precisely 10:00 am.

He also complimented the people for the peaceful behaviour thus far and urged them to cast their votes without fear of intimidation.

Being someone who valued democracy and the will of the people, Sule also pledged to accept the election’s results at its conclusion.

He clarified that even when a presidential candidate in a state lost an election, the All Progressives Congress (APC) respected the results.

Because the decision is up to the people and not us, he said, “We will abide by any outcome that comes forth.

In order to provide security and prevent vote buying, security services such as the Nigeria Police, the Nigeria Immigration Service, and the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps were present at the polling places.
