Chief Ayo Adebanjo, the leader of the pan-Yoruba sociopolitical organisation Afenifere, has declared that there is currently no President-elect since the Independent National Electoral Commission allegedly disobeyed the electoral law that should have governed the presidential election of February 25.
The election saw the emergence of the candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, as the winner and President-elect, defeating Atiku Abubakar of the PDP & Peter Obi of LP.
However, speaking in an interview with Arise TV, Adebanjo described Tinubu’s victory as a sham, just as he criticised those who attacked former president Olusegun Obasanjo for expressing displeasure about the election.
Adebanjo said, “I can assure you there is no president-elect at all.
“This is just a sham, which will be pulled (down) in due course. This is a game we all see, we’re all living witnesses to see.
“Why don’t you follow the law for the election, that would just be peaceful. Those who are criticising, they leave the issue, they take on OBJ; it is the message that the man says you have not done ABC, reply to that. You pick on the messenger.
“On this occasion now, it is not a question of whether you win or not, but is it the method the law provides for the election, have you followed it? Let them answer that, that’s the problem, why are you beating about the bush?”
