President Muhammadu Buhari has on Friday signed the Electoral Bill into law.
His media aide, Femi Adesina, had earlier indicated that baring all unforeseen circumstances, the president was expected to append his signature to the document on Friday.
The electoral bill had become a thorny issue nationwide with various organization staging protests to have it signed.
Just last Monday, some civil society groups stormed the Unity Fountain in Abuja to protest the delay in the signing of the bill.
They had argued that only the signing of the law could guarantee the credibility of the country’s elections.
