But,  two other aspirants,  Chief Joel Madaki and Dr. Umar Ardo,  protested the outcome of the exercise, alleging irregularities and non-appearance of electoral officers.

Ardo said : "In Adamawa State there is no vote talk less of counting the votes as  the president has been repeating that every vote shall count, so his principles  of one man one vote is defeated.

"We urgently went to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and lodged our complaints and observations, but to my  dismay, INEC told us that the party did not give them a clear procedure and time  table of the election so they did not come out. "

Madaki, former PDP state chairman, said his agents reported that there  was no official of the party that came to supervise the exercise.

He said the national officers of the party, who were sent to  supervise the election disappeared.
