An Abuja based journalist, Abraham Lucky says Nigerians are not happy with the final election results.
According to him, many political parties are ready to go to court on the basis that the results are not the true reflection of the election.
INEC has announced Ruling party candidate Bola Tinubu has been declared the winner of Nigeria’s disputed presidential election.
The 70-year-old veteran politician got 36% of the vote, official results show.
His main rival Atiku Abubakar polled 29%, and Labour’s Peter Obi 25%. Their parties had earlier dismissed the poll as a sham, and demanded a rerun.
Commenting on the elections on the Morning Starr with Frances Abban, the Abuja based journalist said the situation in the country is not what was expected.
“Everybody is not happy. The reaction generally all over Nigeria is that the results are not the true reflection of the election that took place on the 25th February, 2023. So everybody is agitating, everybody is not pleased with that particular announcement. A lot of people are preparing to go to court because of the outcome. The announcement is not accepted by a lot of parties.
“No, absolutely no. What we have in the situation room is absolutely different from what was announced. The team is working on that and as soon as possible we will get to hear what the report will be. Especially from what we have gathered so far in the situation room. What we have is absolutely different from what was announced. I can categorically tell you that it’s so clear,” Mr. Lucky narrated.
