• Sani, Sule, Oborevwori, Fubara, Yusuf, others declared winners
Following the dissatisfaction of some electorate in the management of the governorship and state assembly elections, protests rocked some states, yesterday, against the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
Angry voters objected to the delay tactics of the electoral body in releasing the results and the alleged discrepancies in the election results signed by party agents against what was uploaded at INEC portal.
As post-election crisis was gathering momentum, the European Union Election Observation Mission to Nigeria’s 2023 general elections declared, that owing to lack of transparency and operational failures, Nigerians have lost confidence and trust in INEC.
