“Today, the process is very peaceful. I have seen what INEC has been doing all this while. It is going very peacefully and that’s what we are advising everyone, to go peacefully and vote,” the candidate said.

“Go with your card to your units, vote and leave the place, not to come and create problem; but guide your vote – that’s what we are telling everybody.”

Lyon expressed optimism that APC would win the governorship election.
