President Muhammadu Buhari will win Saturday’s election, according to opinion polls conducted by NOI Poll and British Business Group.
Their findings confirmed that President Buhari of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) and former Vice President Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) are clearly in a two-horse race, adding that other presidential candidates are not in serious contention.
Also, the findings did not contradict the report of New York-based global research firm, Eurasia Group, which predicted that the President will win by 60 percent of the votes.
