APC, PDP, LP, NNPP Rigged Saturday’s Election – ADC Presidential Candidate Reacts To Tinubu’s Victory
Dumebi Kachikwu, the presidential candidate of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), has described the All Progressives Congress (APCBola )’s Tinubu’s victory in last Saturday’s election as “well deserved.”
Mr Kachikwu also claimed that all four major parties, APC, PDP, LP, and NNPP, committed election fraud.
This was stated by the ADC candidate in a statement issued on Friday in Abuja.
Mr Tinubu received 8,794,726 votes, while Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) received 6,984,520 votes and Peter Obi of the Labour Party received 6,101,533 votes.
The three candidates won 12 states each.
Mr Kachikwu polled 81,919 votes in the election.

However, both the PDP and the LP candidates stated that they would challenge the election results in court.
The failure of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to upload the results to the viewing platform has cast doubt on the process’s integrity.
Mr Kachikwu said Mr Tinubu’s victory was “a clear case of consistency and preparation meets opportunity,” adding that the president-elect was a dogged fighter with a mastery of the Nigerian political system and took advantage of a disunited opposition some of whom were running purely on the divisive platforms of ethnicity and religion.
He said though the four major parties rigged the election, it was not sufficient to alter the outcome of the process.
“The distortions occasioned by the rigging done by the four so-called leading parties were not significant enough to have altered the outcome of this election,” he said.
The ADC candidate recalled that he warned the PDP and LP ahead of the election to form a united front to combat the APC, but they refused to put aside their differences in order to do so.
He said, “I long warned that any vote for the Labour Party was a vote in support of an APC victory. The PDP and Labour Party candidates failed to show leadership when they refused to put aside petty differences to build a formidable opposition to take on a non-performing sitting government. They now seek to form an alliance of sore losers after defeat.”
Mr Kachikwu also chastised religious groups for allowing their platforms to be used for political campaigns.
