Usman praised the peaceful conduct of the elections and expressed gratitude to voters for their dedication to grassroots democracy.

He highlighted the high turnout, despite some voter apathy, attributing it to communal consensus.

He added that the participation of 14 political parties demonstrated confidence in the electoral process, noting that technology contributed to a smooth and efficient election.

The success, he explained, was due to a strong awareness campaign, cooperation from the Inter-Party Advisory Council (IPAC), and the commitment of security agencies.
