You Are All Shameless Sore Losers- FG
The federal government has described the opposition parties attacking President Muhammadu Buhari over his recent comment on the 2023 presidential elections as “shameless sore losers”.
In a statement on Sunday, the Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed, said the Labour Party’s candidate, Peter Obi and that of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar lost the election despite gaining traction before the election.
The minister reiterated the position of the president that the opposition in the 2023 presidential election lost in the poll due to their overconfidence, complacency and bad tactical moves.
“Opposition’s overconfidence going into the election stemmed in part from the blitzkrieg of social media propaganda, as well as faulty and procured opinion polls.
“These were apparently meant to hoodwink their foreign backers and a section of the international media into uncritically reporting that they were coasting home to victory when they were indeed heading into the ravine of defeat,” he said.
Mr Mohammed advised the opposition to stop their endless gripping over the polls, which they lost, adding the president deserves accolades for delivering the best election in Nigeria’s history.
“President Muhammadu Buhari lived up to his billing by delivering a free, fair and credible election, and his legacy is assured.
“The president would rather lose his state and many of his party’s strongholds than tamper with the fidelity of the election, and that is why he provided a level-playing field for all parties,” he said the candidate of the APC, Bola Tinubu, won the presidential election fair and square, clinching the majority of the votes cast,” Mr Mohammed said.
He added that Mr Tinubu surpassed the constitutionally stipulated 25 per cent of votes cast in each of at least two-thirds of all the states in the Federation and the Federal Capital Territory.
