Nyesom Wike, minister of the federal capital territory (FCT), says election petitions are not won on social media platforms.
Speaking during an interview with Channels Television on Thursday, Wike said the opposition parties “don’t have a case” against the victory of President Bola Tinubu in the February 25 election.The tribunal ruled that the petitions filed by the Allied Peoples Movement , Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party , and Peter Obi of the Labour Party were “all devoid of merit”.
“It is not won on social media. It is a presentation of evidence and facts. Not what you said to your supporters outside.“I sat down for not less than 10 hours and to look at how the justices painstakingly took each item one by one, from the preliminary objections to the motions, down to the objections on documents and exhibits, down to substantial issues.”
