FCT Abuja Has No Special Status But...... by NothingDoMe: 8:03pm On Sep 11, 2023
According to the Nigerian constitution, the President is the Governor of Abuja and he can appoint a Minister to vest his powers on.

This means that Voters in Abuja only vote once for Governorship and Presidential elections. One vote for two offices. This is very different from the voters in other states that cast their votes twice.

Can this not be described as having a special status as per voting and state?

How can someone win election as a governor without wining his state ( Abuja)?
Nigeria justice system is a waste.
