Only the blind would accept 2023 presidential election outcome, LP replies Lai Mohammed

 The Labour Party (LP) has accused
Lai Mohammed, minister of information and culture, of pushing propaganda to
Nigerians.

 

Reacting to the minister’s
statement where he asked opposition parties to desist from “bleating” about the
outcome of the presidential election, the Labour Party said only the blind
would accept the outcome of the 2023 presidential election.

 

“We would rather not join issues
with a man who is famous for constantly prescribing doses of expired and
ineffectual propaganda to Nigerians,” the Labour Party said.

 

“His ill-fated and hugely failed
trip to the United Kingdom and United States where he attempted to redeem the
grossly battered democratic credentials of this present administration;
spending millions of tax payers money to defend an indefensible action is yet
another tragedy of President Buhari’s 8 years leadership.

 

“It is only the blind that will
continue to insist that the 2023 presidential election which was massively
rigged was free, fair and credible.

 

“As we have said earlier, the
opposition political parties lost the election because the Independent National
Electoral Commission, INEC jettisoned the electoral act, having not uploaded
the result from the polling unit in real time as promised and in so doing,
created room for riggers to have a field day.

 

“The election witnessed
unprecedented magnitude of violence, ballot snuffing, snatching and
manipulations of result from the collation centres using thugs, security
agencies, which included police, army amongst others.”

 

While speaking on Thursday during
a meeting with APC governors in Abuja, President Muhammadu Buhari said while
the All Progressives Congress (APC) was working hard to retain the presidency,
opposition parties were basking in the euphoria of false hope.

 

He said a combination of
“overconfidence, complacency, and bad tactical moves” made Atiku Abubakar of
the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and Peter Obi of the Labour Party (LP) lose
to President-elect Bola Tinubu.

 

The opposition parties reacted by
criticising the president’s comment, claiming that the election was rigged in
favour of the APC.
