INEC on Wednesday morning formally declared the Presidential Candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, President Muhammadu Buhari as the winner of Nigeria’s 2019 presidential election.
Buhari polled 15,191,847 votes, compared to the 11,262,978 votes recorded by Atiku Abubakar, the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
Atiku in a statement made available to newsmen on Wednesday said he would not call Buhari to accept defeat because the presidential election was not free and fair.
He rejected the results, describing the presidential elections conducted on February 23, 2019 as a ‘sham’, declaring that he will challenge President Buhari in court.
