Rigging claims fly as Nigeria election results come in

Nigeria's main opposition on Monday accused the ruling party of trying to rig presidential elections as the incumbent cemented a lead, but monitors voiced concern about polling day problems and violence that caused dozens of deaths. The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) accused the All Progressives Congress (APC) of President Muhammadu Buhari of colluding with the electoral commission in an attempt to "manipulate the results". PDP chairman Uche Secondus told reporters the APC was using security agencies and ministers to put pressure on the authorities.
