The result viewing portal of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has remained down with polling unit results still not uploaded.
This has heightened fears by leaders of the Labour Party of a possible rigging plot being hatched.
INEC has not made any statement to allay the fears of Nigerians who have been making efforts to log onto the portal.

Reports also indicated that no polling unit result has been uploaded so far because the portal has been inaccessible.
A chieftain of the Labour Party, Prof Pat Utomi, said the situation may lead to protest by youths if they suspect that their electoral will was about to be truncated in the face of what he described as Labour Party landslide.
Utomi said: “I Just spoke to Labour Party Chairman, Julius Abure, who fears that the upload failure epidemic may be seen by the youths as an attempt to rig a clear Labour landslide across the country. He is scared that if they hit the streets, Nigeria could burn. I urge INEC Chairman Mahmoud Yakubu to redeem himself.”
