Worried by electoral tendencies that were not at all favorable to him, the outgoing president of Nigeria, Muhamad Buhari who made a fix more than obsessive of a second mandate, would have plotted with the Electoral Commission postponement of a week of the poll on the very eve of his dress. Objective, glean an extra week of campaign in the hope of reversing the situation.
A machination that has not escaped the diplomat and former US Minister Herman Cohen who says in a tweet that the probable winner of the poll is the candidate of the PDP, Atiku Abubakar
Election delay in #Nigeria reflects popular vote trending against incumbent President Buhari who hopes one additional week of campaigning will help make up lost ground. Atiku is the likely winner.
