According to the presidential spokesman, Garba Shehu, the results of the February 25 presidential election surprised many people who had already chosen a winner before the Independent National Electoral Commission.
Garba Shehu, the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, made the comment during an interview with Arise Television News.
He claimed that notwithstanding the irregularities seen during the February 25 election, it was still the most improved election in Nigerian history.
Shehu claimed in a statement he released on Monday that the Buhari administration has prepared the foundation for genuine elections to take place in the nation. He did note that INEC is in charge of handling the results’ tabulation, though.
