Election that produced Tinubu as president flawed, says Buhari



resident Muhammadu Buhari has admitted the Saturday presidential poll in which former governor of Lagos Bola Tinubu emerged as the winner is flawed.

Mr Buhari also charged Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party and Peter Obi of the Labour Party to challenge the outcome of the poll in court if they have proof that the exercise was rigged in Mr Tinubu’s favour……

“That is not to say the exercise (Saturday’s election) was without fault. For instance, there were technical problems with electronic transmission of the results,” said the Nigerian leader. “Of course, there will be areas that need work to bring further transparency and credibility to the voting procedure. However, none of the issues registered represent a challenge to the freeness and fairness of the elections.”

Mr Buhari disclosed this in a statement by his media aide Garba Shehu, congratulating the president-elect.

“I know some politicians and candidates may not agree with this view. That too is fine. If any candidate believes they can prove the fraud they claim is committed against them, then bring forward the evidence,” said Mr Buhari.

“If they cannot, then we must conclude that the election was indeed the people’s will – no matter how hard that may be for the losers to accept. If they feel the need to challenge, please take it to the courts, not to the streets.”

The president’s speech followed INEC chairman Mahmood Yakubu’s declaration of Mr Tinubu as the winner of Saturday’s presidential election at the National Collation Centre in Abuja.

Mr Tinubu polled 8,794,726 votes to defeat PDP’s Atiku Abubakar, winning 12 of 36 states of Nigeria. Mr Abubakar polled 6,984,520 votes.

Peter Obi of Labour Party, came third, polling 6,101,533 votes.

The declaration of Mr Tinubu as the president-elect came amidst huge protest by PDP and Labour Party, calling for suspension of result collation and and outright cancellation of the presidential poll due to INEC’s failure to upload election results on its server in real time. https://vincentinho.com.ng/breaking-election-that-produced-tinubu-as-president-flawed-says-buhari

Tinubu is an election results manipulatior.
This election is the most fraudulent in the country's history.

Buhari like a failure that you are you cannot leave a legacy of free and fair election
You deceived everybody that you want to curb vote buying and suffered everybody meanwhile you and your party have perfected to use manual collation to rig the election. You have no honour or integrity
For those going to court, in Nigeria its a waste of time,especially in issues like this they all Collaborate, the crooks in judiciary and the crooks in the political class

Even the whole word knows the election was massively rig in favour of Tinubu of APC, Obedient act foolishly on saturday when they started posting the result of southern state where LP won which happen to be Atiku stronghold and that was the time the power that be started changing the results of Obi and Atiku to favour tinubu because they prefer tinubu to obi.

Anyway congratulation to tinubu because power has finally come back to the SOUTH.

Take your grieve to court,abi u are not sane enough to comprehend that part of what you posted.

APC have already planted ARIWOOLA in Supreme Court for any election that may arise after election.

Northerners kept their own results secret after election but Our own Obedient started posting their own on social media, So what do you expect the northerners to do when they see that their first choice which is Atiku is loosing in his stronghold in the South to Peter obi. They know that Atiku cannot win with their vote alone so instead of the power to go to southeast they decided to rig the election in favour of their second choice which is tinubu.

There are lot of senate and house of rep that deserve to be re elected in the south but lost because of you agressive politics.
