Fani-Kayode Advises Atiku To Reject The Ongoing Presidential Election Result Being Announced By INEC

A Former Minister of Aviation and chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Femi Fani-Kayode has called on the party’s presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, to reject the ongoing presidential election result being announced by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).

President Muhammadu Buhari of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) is leading in the results so far announced with a wide margin.

Fani-Kayode reacting to ongoing announcement of the presidential election via his Twitter handle, described the election result as a charade, and called on Atiku to reject results being announced and give the Federal Government “an ultimatum to declare the authentic results.”

He wrote:

“The election was a charade! Atiku should now brace up to defend the choice of millions of Nigerians who risked their lives on Saturday, defied tyranny and oppression and spoke through the ballot!

“He must reject the results and give the FG an ultimatum to declare the authentic results, failure of which he will form a Govt. and order civil disobedience throughout the nation!

“If this charade is allowed to stand, the country is finished! Then the authentic results collated by PDP from the 119,000 PUs must be released to the public and the int. community!”
