Bola Tinubu, the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, says the electoral process cannot be perfect and devoid of manipulations in some areas but politicians must accept the result of a free and fair elections.

Mr Tinubu disclosed this to journalists on Saturday at his home in Lagos, while insisting that he would emerge president from Saturday’s election because he had worked harder than other candidates.

“A democrat, a trust democrat, must accept the result of a free and fair elections. As a democrat, you must have faith in the system. Once you have faith in the system, it is not a problem to accept the result of a free and fair elections,” Mr Tinubu said when asked if he would accept the result of Saturday’s election if he loses.

“Perception is one thing. On rare occasions that you have skirmishes and lack of confidence, it is created by the politicians. Not the electoral process. In the electoral process we cannot see 100 per cent perfection. People have to tolerate that. Equally when you are talking of manipulation in some areas, you have to evaluate what is material. Materiality comes to play. How many compared to total turn out or total who voted. You’ve got to accept the result of a fairly responsible voter’s decision,” he added.

In Lagos, Mr Tinubu’s home state, Nigerians witnessed disruption of the electoral process on Saturday by thugs suspected to be loyal to the former two-term governor of Lagos, while the late arrival of INEC’s staff and failure of BVAS affected the process in some parts of the country.

Mr Tinubu, 70, is up against the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar and Peter Obi of the Labour Party.

No matter,the matter ooo,Obi will win!

Criminal

It is morally and politically impossible for a destroyer of democratic process to preside over a democratic nation.

Tinubu will not and cannot be President.

Thief you worked harder by bribing.

What is this? Just keep quiet and allow INEC to speak.

Tinubu can never win.

Obi is winning already with 75%

In electoral process you can see 100% perfection is the response from Asiwaju

But Gazette of IPOB have change the narration to suit their miserable mischievous

Light will always triumph over darkness.

Surely demons shall gather, but they gather in vain.

President Obi has come to stay

Good to know.

Dear apc and pdp supporters, where is that bloc vote coming from the North which you're still expecting?

Let me burst your bubbles...

NNPP, APC and PDP are sharing the so called bloc votes this time ftom the cote north as seen so far and its in the favour of Obi.

Only Obi had secured 2 major zones already in this election with wide margins...the SE and SS in the bag. In most places, pdp and apc recorded zero votes in those regions.

Only Obi is also seen doing well in the middle belt right now, already winning Plateau and Abuja. He's projected to also win Benue.

In Taraba, it's been good news , Kaduna and Nasarawa too. He's doing well in some parts of gombe and bauchi states. So far, only Obi is leading steadily. Lagos is there which I don't want to comment on at this point, until after the elections had been concluded later today in some volatile areas.

Absolutely right. Just look at the massive rigging Obidîots terrorists did for Obi in the South East region and Igbo congregated communities across Nigeria. But the IPOB terrorists candidate political fraudster Peter Obituary still lost the elections woefully.
