Peter Obi Won The 2023 Election, Tinubu Came A Distant Third – Babachir Lawal
David Babachir Lawal, a former Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), on Tuesday declared that the candidate of the Labour Party, (LP) Peter Gregory Obi, won the February 25, presidential election and not Bola Ahmed Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress as announced by the Independent National Electoral Commission.
Babachir Lawal disclosed that President Bola Tinubu came a distant third in the number of votes scored.
The former SGF Babachir Lawal hinted that available factual data as aggregated from several independent sources indicated that Obi got the majority votes while Atiku Abubakar of the People’s Democratic Party came second in the election.
“I have resisted the temptation to engage in the contemporary political discourse since the May 2023 election faux pas.
“My answer to the first inquiry is that regardless of whatever INEC or Appeal Court said or did, Bola did not win the election.
“Right from the start of the campaigns, Bola knew he was not going to win the election in a free and fair contest so he decided to go by all means,” Babachir Lawal said in a statement
