The Chief of Staff to President Muhammadu Buhari, Professor Ibrahim Gambari has expressed delight with the electoral process after casting his vote in Saturday’s presidential and national assembly elections.

Prof. Gambari who participated in the exercise by voting at Unit 005, Akanbi IV, Ilorin South, Kwara State commended the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) for the peaceful nature of the exercise.

Speaking with journalists in Ilorin after casting his votes, the President’s chief of staff urged politicians who may not be comfortable with the eventual outcome of the exercise to approach the court for redress instead of sponsoring protests online or on the streets.

He said: “I am impressed with the professionalism of the INEC officials, the orderliness and smoothness with which the process is going.

“I am delighted to perform my civic duty. That is to cast my vote for the candidate of my choice in my own constituency.

“The electorate should vote for the candidates that they feel meet their aspirations for a better life; vote wisely and decide who is best to meet your expectations.

“The contesting candidates should accept the result as announced by INEC which is the only constitutionally empowered authority to announce the result and not social media results.

“Those who have any grievance should go through the constitutional and legal process.”
