Hat tip guys for the hard work showcasing the elections.

I'm watching footage from Al Jazeera English earlier today, Mike Hanna filing from Abuja. He's interviewing Laurence Alobi, Abuja Police Commissioner who is cool about the incident, but it appears it was a real truck bomb. Haven't had a chance to check out CNN's coverage but some of it's Tivo'ed... the coverage from international TV media here in the UK has been overwhelming, I can't keep up and Al Jazeera is running the elections continuously. It's such a change from the experience of 2004, I cannot begin to express it. Independent journalists and election monitors come out of this the real heroes. At least this time we can see the truth, in detail. Pleasure Bill. I’m watching footage from Al Jazeera English earlier today, Mike Hanna filing from Abuja.
