Each figure says what has happened to it. Reported is not checked, and checked is not declared.
The headline and the LGA figures disagree.
- Sadique Abubakar: headline 432.3k, checked and declared units sum to 432.3k. Gap -30.
- Halliru Dauda Jika: headline 60.5k, checked and declared units sum to 60.5k. Gap +12.
- Bala Mohammed: headline 525.3k, checked and declared units sum to 525.3k. Gap -1.
Shown rather than hidden: two independently entered numbers that should agree, and do not yet.
Becoming is not INEC. INEC remains the statutory authority for declaring results; what is marked declared here is what INEC has declared, as sourced. How we keep the two apart.
Sentiment from verified PVC holders on Becoming. Not a ballot — your vote at the polling unit is what counts on election day.
