The vice presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Datti Baba-Ahmed, has vowed that his party will seek legal means to contest the electoral process that produced the President-elect, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu.
Baba-Ahmed made the pledge at a press conference held at the party’s national headquarters in Abuja on Wednesday.
Baba-Ahmed stated that the LP was determined to fight the injustice that dashed the hope of distraught Nigerians through all legal and peaceful means.
This is as the LP presidential campaign council claimed that the manner the Independent National Electoral Commission hurriedly announced the results and gave out Certificates of Return to both Tinubu and his running mate, Kashim Shettima, reeks of collusion.
The development is coming barely 24 hours after Tinubu was announced as the winner of Saturday’s presidential poll.
The APC flag bearer polled 8,794,726 votes to defeat his closest rivals, Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party and Labour Party’s Peter Obi who polled 6,984,520 and 6,101,533 votes respectively.
