The delegates to the All Progressives Congress National Convention have finished voting and counting has begun.

From all indications, Muhammadu Buhari appears to be coasting home to victory, with a landslide, going by the announcement of votes by the sorter. It’s been 4-1 or even at times, 5-1 between ballots going to Buhari and his greatest challenger, Atiku Abubakar’s boxes.

Just as we predicted yesterday, Kwankwaso and Rochas Okorocha are also pulling some votes, but they trail both Buhari and Atiku.

Sam Ndah Isaiah, the newspaper publisher had gotten just one vote, as the sorting progressed by 11.06 a.m
