Nigeria's president elect, General Muhammadu Buhari will be addressing
the nation by 11.000am on Wednesday.
Party officials announced the decision to cancel the address at about
12.54am after a long wait for the Independent National Electoral
Commission to officially announce the winner of the election.
The supporters who had besieged the party secretariat to catch a
glimpse of General Buhari left the party secretariat disappointed, but
With great enthusiasm for better things to come.
All streets leading to the National Secretariat of the party were
taken over by youths and other Nigerians celebrating the victory of
Buhari as early as 5.00pm, while security was beefed up around the
place with men of Department of State Security and the Police on
ground.
The youths holding brooms danced around the secretariat, singing and
drumming while others dance around the street. The story was the sad
around the Federal Capital Territory.
Party leaders, governors and members of the National Assembly led by
the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Aminu Waziri Tambuwal
were also at the National Secretariat.
