Tinubu’s Victory: Don’t Waste Your Time – Ex-Lawmaker Tells Atiku, Peter Obi

Former lawmaker who represented Adamawa South in the Senate, Grace Bent has urged the Presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar, and his Labour Party (LP) counterpart, Peter Obi to accept their defeat in the February 25 presidential election.

Naija News reports that the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) had declared Bola Ahmed Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress (APC) as the winner of the election with over eight million votes.

In a congratulatory message to the president-elect, Senator Bola Tinubu and his running mate Senator Kashim Shettima, Bent urged Obi and Atiku not to waste their time going to court.

Bent said, “Engaging in a legal tussle on the widely adjudged most credible election will amount to only unnecessary distraction to hold down the process of leadership to thrive.

“The presidential election results were a true reflection of Nigerians’ honest votes, you don’t need to waste your time and resources.

“Going to court will lead them to exercise in futility with no positive impact on the judiciary and democratic systems.

“I believe in the duo style of leadership, the ticket will unite us more than the thinking of many who are selfish to look at it from the religious point of view.”
