He said:
“It is just the result of a bad government. A disaster that God will help us to get rid of. I can assure you there is no President-elect at all; it is just a sham that should be pulled in due course.
“This is a game we all see. We are all living witnesses to it. Why don’t you [INEC] follow the laws that will guide the elections?”
The Afenifere leader was not the only one challenging Tinubu’s victory in February 25 election.
Peter Obi of the Labour Party, and Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party were also challenging Tinubu’s victory at the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal.
