Lagos - Voters unable to cast their ballot because of technical problems in Nigeria's general election returned to the polls on Sunday, as the main parties traded blows over the use of the technology.
The country's electoral commission said about 300 of the 150 000 polling stations would be open from 07:00 GMT to accredit voters after handheld devices to read biometric identity cards failed.
Nigeria's ruling People’s Democratic Party (PDP) called the situation a "huge national embarrassment" after President Goodluck Jonathan was affected by the malfunction as he tried to register on Saturday.
