Ex-Labour Party vice presidential candidate, Datti Baba-Ahmed, has slammed the Independent National Electoral Commission INEC, for announcing the 2023 election result at 4am.
Speaking in an interview with Symfoni, Baba-Ahmed stated that an electoral umpire that announces results at 4am is a criminal.
Baba-Ahmed also lambasted President Bola Tinubu for leading a government that was a product of that ‘criminal’ act.
“I keep saying, and I sometimes I wonder, we Nigerians, why do we just take everything to pass? How can an INEC chairman promise African leaders, including Nelson Mandela’s younger brother,Thabo Mbeki, that he would announce election result by 9am but sneaked and did the announcement by by 4am?
“Isn’t this person a thief? Isn’t he a crook to announce results by 4am? This is wrong. Look, you’re a Nigerian. I’m a Nigerian. Well, I know I did my part. I tried to stop it, but it has passed.
“And how can you shamelessly be leading a government that was announced at 4am? Who works at 4am? Criminals! The INEC that announces a result at 4am is a criminal INEC. Believe me,” he said.
