The candidate of the Labour Party, Mr Peter Obi, has rejected the outcome of the 25th February election which produced Bola Ahmed Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress (APC) as president.
Addressing a press conference on Thursday, Obi who has been quiet since the declaration of Tinubu as president, said he won the election and would prove it through a legitimate process.
He urged his supporters to remain calm and hopeful.
“I have just finished addressing an international press conference. I urge Nigerians to remain resolute.
“We won this election and we will prove it to Nigerians. We shall reclaim our mandate via due process. Please do not despair!” Obi tweeted on Thursday afternoon.
Recall that the LP’s vice presidential candidate, Dr Yusuf Datti Baba-Ahmed, on Wednesday hinted that the party would go to court to challenge the outcome of the Saturday’s presidential poll.
