Millions of Nigerians are headed back to the polls Saturday as Africa's most populous nation holds gubernatorial elections amid tensions after last month's disputed presidential vote.

New governors are being chosen for 28 of Nigeria's 36 states as the opposition continues to reject the victory of President-elect Bola Tinubu from the West African nation's ruling party.
