Voting coming to a close in Ibadan despite delays
Voting has ended in most of the polling units I have visited in the city of Ibadan in Nigeria’s south-west – with others just rounding off business.
Proceedings did start late is some areas, even at the polling station where Oyo Governor Seyi Makinde eventually cast his vote.
These delays were mainly due to the late arrival of electoral officials.
But the election has been peaceful so far and no reports of electoral violence or the destruction of electoral materials.
Lines of people who were in the queue at 14:30 local time (13:30 GMT) when polls officially closed have been allowed to cast their ballot.
All votes cast will be transported to the state headquarters of in the Independent National Electoral Commission (Inec) later in the day
