Obi had previously questioned the outcome of the election and had asked the court to grant him access to all the sensitive materials that the Independent National Electoral Commission used for the election.
On Tuesday, the LP candidate filed another lawsuit at the election tribunal challenging the declaration of Tinubu by INEC, claiming that he was not duly elected by the majority of the lawful votes cast at the time of the election.
Obi also claimed that there was rigging in 11 states, including Rivers, Lagos, Taraba, Benue, Adamawa, Imo, Bauchi, Borno, Kaduna, and Plateau. He said he would demonstrate this in the declaration of results based on the uploaded results. Tinubu Will Be Cleared of All Accusations – Kayamo, keep reading.
In response to Obi’s petition, Keyamo said that all the lies and disinformation about simple and clear issues would be revealed in court.
