Presidential poll: Why Tinubu can’t be sworn in – Datti Ahmed 

Must read

The Labour Party vice presidential candidate in the just concluded February 25 elections, Yusuf Datti Baba Ahmed, has said it is going to be a difficult task swearing in Tinubu president of the country.

Datti on Arise TV on Wednesday declared that swearing in Tinubu would be “as good as swearing in military regime.”

According to the vice presidential candidate, there was a constitutional breach during the presidential poll that produced Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress, APC, as President-elect.

Datti claimed that the certificate of return issued to the former Lagos Governor by the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, has no value.

He said, “We cannot have a president-elect when there has been a constitutional breach. There’s a clear interpretation of Section 134 and INEC’s interpretation of Section 134.

“Asiwaju Tinubu is no President-elect, what he holds is a dud certificate that has no value.

 

“Swearing in Tinubu is an assault on the constitution, swearing in Tinubu is as good as swearing in a military regime.”
