A former National Chairman of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Adams Oshiomhole, says either Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) or Peter Obi of the Labour Party (LP) is lying for claiming victory in last Saturday’s presidential election.
Following Wednesday’s declaration by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) that Bola Tinubu of the APC was the winner of the election, both Atiku and Obi have declared the electoral process as flawed and claimed they won.
However, in a swift reaction, the former two-term Edo State Governor who also who won the Edo North senatorial election said the two opposition presidential candidates are accusing themselves of rigging each other out.
“Between His Excellency Peter Obi my very good friend and His Excellency Atiku Abubakar, one of them must be lying. That is clear by the fact that Atiku who came second said he won, Obi who came third said no he is the one who won,” Oshiomhole said.
