Abuja, March 30 (RHC)-- Millions of people have voted in Nigeria’s presidential elections amid new violence from the Boko Haram. More than a dozen people were killed in several attacks around the country.

People in the oil-rich West African country turned out en masse to vote in a presidential election on March 28th in a close race between incumbent Jonathan and former military chief Muhammadu Buhari.

The elections in Nigeria were extended until Sunday because ballot papers arrived late or imported card readers failed to recognize the fingerprints of the voters. Final results are expected late Monday.
