Despite some violence said observers of Saturday's poll alternative summit was.
The first vote had to be postponed material reached not many areas from 2 April to vote.
Previous elections since the return to civilian rule in 1999 have through widespread fraud and intimidation has been tarnished.
Elections for the Presidency and State were Governor also delayed and are now on 16 and 26 April and will take place.
Unfortunately for President?With more than 70% of the preliminary results announced at a level has President Goodluck Jonathan's people's Democratic Party (PDP) suffered considerable losses.

It was another embarrassing loss for the PDP in the Northern State of Katsina Maryam Yar 'Adua, daughter of Yar' of the late President Umaru Yar'Adua, where failed in their bid get in the House of representatives.
Mr Burubo, which the National Council in the southern oil-rich Niger Delta is Ijaw, said, but bad result at parliamentary level of the presidential election would not affect the PDP.
"I have a feeling, a good number of areas where the PDP has been beaten back even to the PDP candidate, Dr Goodluck Jonathan has and his running mate Sambo because of who they are - not only because of the party" he told the BBC Network Africa program.
He said, Mr. Jonathan, who is from the underdeveloped Niger Delta where inhabitants of politicians have felt ignored, is popular in the region.
His main opponents on the presidential ticket are former anti-corruption fighter J Ribadu for the ACN and former military ruler Muhammadu Buhari of the CPC.
The people's Democratic Party (PDP) won all elections since the end of military rule in 1999. It won two-thirds of Nigeria's 36 States last time. But a southerner - President Goodluck Jonathan - as your candidate it some votes in the North can lose the presidential election.
Nigeria's 160 million people are divided between many ethno-linguistic group and also religious role model. On the whole, the Hausa-Fulani are mainly Muslim people in the North. The Yorubas of Southwest are divided between Muslims and Christians, while the Igbos in the Southeast and Neghbouring groups are mostly Christian or animist. The middle belt is home to hundreds of groups with others believe, and Jos frequent clashes between Hausa-speaking Muslims and Christians are members of the community be Rome.
Despite its extensive resources, Nigeria is one of the very unequal countries in the world, according to the UN. The poverty in the North is in stark contrast to the more developed South. While in the oil-rich South East, residents of Delta and Akwa Ibom complain all they produce the wealth flowing to the pipeline of Abuja and Lagos.
Southern residents tend to be better access to health care, like you by the greater inclusion of vaccines against polio, tuberculosis, tetanus, and diphtheria. Some Northern groups boycotted immunisation programmes in the past, say it a Western plot to make Muslim women infertile. This led to a repeat of polio, but the vaccinations have now resumed.
Standard of living for the next generation is seen as the key to improving women. For example, a newborn child is to survive if their mother is well trained far more likely. In Nigeria, we see a strong contrast between the mainly Muslim north and southern Christians and animists. In some Northern States, while in certain Igbo areas more than 90% read and write are read less than 5% of women and write.
Nigeria is Africa's largest oil producer and the largest in the world, but most of the people live on less than $2 per day. The oil is in the Southeast, and some are militant groups a greater share of wealth comes from want to maintain under their feet. Attacks by militants on oil installations led to a sharp fall in Nigeria's output during the last ten years. But in the year 2010, an amnesty Government led thousands of fighters, lay down their arms.
