Tinubu Would Be Cleared Of All Allegations – Keyamo

The Minister of State for Labour and Employment, Festus Keyamo said the President-elect, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu will be cleared of all allegations.

He made this statement via his verified handle in reaction to the petitions filed by the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi and the Presidential Candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.

Obi had in a recent election petition called for the annulment of the February 25 Presidential Election won by the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Bola Tinubu.

The LP candidate claimed that Tinubu was not duly elected by the majority of the lawful votes cast at the time of the election. Obi further stated that there was rigging in 11 states including Rivers, Lagos, Taraba, Benue, Adamawa, Imo, Bauchi, Borno, Kaduna, and Plateau, adding that he would demonstrate this in the declaration of results based on the uploaded results.

Obi’s recent petitions come after he asked the court to grant him permission to access all the sensitive materials Independent National Electoral Commission deployed for the election. 

Atiku, on the other hand, maintained that the declaration of Tinubu as the winner of the presidential election was “invalid by reason of non-compliance with the provisions of the Electoral Act, 2022 and corrupt practices.”

Keyamo reacts to petition

Keyamo expressed excitement at the issues raised in the election petitions. He said, “All the deceit & lies & disinformation & misinformation about otherwise very simple and clear issues are about to be busted by our Law Lords.” He instructed those who continue to argue after court to relocate to another planet.

According to him, “Nigerians will finally see a huge difference between calm, dispassionate adjudication of issues and all the hoopla caused by garrulous spokespersons shaking and falling on stage, ignorant TV hosts turned debaters, misinformed documentaries, illiterate tweeps and some dancing Hijabi mamas.”
