Fani-Kayode Speaks On Buhari’s Alleged Plan To Annul Tinubu’s Victory

A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Femi Fani-Kayode, on Friday, praised President Buhari ‘for standing up for democracy and restoring Nigerians’ confidence in the democratic process and institutions’.

Fani-Kayode’s compliment comes a day after President Buhari rose in stout defence of the recent successful election of Bola Tinubu, the presidential candidate of the ruling party.

Presidential spokesperson, Garba Shehu, in a piece put together on Thursday as a takeaway from President Buhari’ recent visit to Doha, Qatar, said President Buhari disclosed that at no time was any plan hatched to annul the 2023 presidential poll as was the case during the June 12, 1993 presidential election won by late Bashorun Moshood Kashimawo Olawale (MKO) Abiola.
