The former Speaker of the Bwari Area Council Legislative Arm and a previous candidate for chairmanship in the Peoples Democratic Party, Julius Adamu, praised the Independent National Electoral Commission for organizing the current Federal Capital Territory Area Council elections in a fair and peaceful manner.
Adamu spoke to reporters on Saturday right after voting at Polling Unit 008, Katampe Village Square, and was happy with how the election process was going and the calm environment at the polling station.
He said, “INEC has done a good job, and I can see the atmosphere here is peaceful.
“You can see there’s no arguing.
People are just voting for the candidates they support,” he added.
The former PDP aspirant revealed that although he initially contested for the chairmanship position under the PDP, he later stepped down following consultations with party leaders and resolved to back the All Progressives Congress candidate in his ward, Joshua Musa.
“First and foremost, let me say I was a candidate under the platform of PDP, but with the consultation and advice of my leaders at the top, I had to step down for the APC candidate in my ward.
“God has His way of doing His own things, and so I have to step down for him for the progress and development of the people of the Area Council,” Adamu stated.
Adamu also looked at the early parts of the election. He noticed that the election workers and materials arrived quickly at the polling stations he was watching.
