2019 Elections: Buhari refuses to give assent to Electoral Act amendment bill

President Buhari has refused to give assent to the controversial Electoral Act amendment bill.

Buhari said in a letter read by President of the Senate, Bukola Saraki, at the plenary today, that the amendments would be in conflict with the constitutional laws.
