The New Nigeria Peoples Party, NNPP, on Tuesday, March 7 said its presidential candidate, Rabiu Kwankwaso, has not congratulated the President-elect, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, of the All Progressive Congress.
The party’s National Publicity Secretary, Agbo Major, thereby described the February 25 presidential poll as “grossly flawed, contentious and disputed.”
Major noted, “The report that Engr. Kwankwaso congratulated Tinubu was a figment of the fertile imagination of anti-democrats, political hirelings and fifth columnists leveraging on the popularity of the party’s presidential flag bearer.
He furthered said the NNPP has rejected the result emanating from the election, stressing that it didn’t represent the choice of the Nigerian populace as he expressed his disappointment in the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC for not uploading the polling units results on its portal.
“Sadly, the presidential poll turned out to be a charade as it failed to meet the expectation of Nigerians and the international community. NNPP was a target of these electoral robbers who wanted the status quo to remain, in place of the new and better Nigeria the party promised if voted into office.
He, however, enjoined Nigerians to remain calm until the court will delivers justice.
“Until the court decides them one way or the other, it will be preposterous for NNPP that was rigged out in most of its strongholds across the country to concede defeat and congratulate INEC’s imposed ‘winner’.
