The Speaker of the House of Representatives, Yakubu Dogara,
experienced a minor glitch as he tried to vote at his polling unit
in Gwaranga primary school.
Dogara arrived the polling unit in his village Gwaranga, Bogoro
Local Government Area of Bauchi State, alongside his wife.
At the point of accreditation, the card reader failed to
authenticate his fingerprints.
INEC officials, however, found a way to fix the situation,
allowing the lawmaker and his wife to vote.
Similarly, three card readers have broken down at the polling
unit of Governor Nasir El-Rufai in Kaduna.
According to our reporter on the ground, the incident took place
at Unit 024 Ungwar Sariki ward where the governor is expected to
vote.
