Bola Ahmed Tinubu, candidate of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), has been declared winner of Saturday’s presidential election by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
Professor Mahmood Yakubu, the chief returning officer of the presidential election, announced the two-time former Lagos governor as the winner despite opposition parties’ call for the cancellation of the elections over allegations that INEC failed to comply with the law in the collation and announcement of results.
