"Waiting to vote at my polling station in Umuda Isingwu village Umuahia , Abia state. I have been waiting one hour. Many villagers have been here since 7 am. It is 11.23 am now. Where are the INEC officers??"

Following the arrival of INEC officials and election materials, she confirmed voting with her husband an hour later.

"The INEC officers finally arrived. My husband and I have just voted. The turnout is unbelievable, the largest I have ever seen in all the years I have voted in the village. Young and very old all are here."
