Electoral Rigging: Atiku's Aide Claims Tinubu Will Be Disqualified and Rewarded with Ministerial Appointment

In a Twitter post, a member of the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) known as Hon. Rilwan expressed confidence that President Bola Tinubu, who was declared the winner of the 2023 presidential election by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), will be disqualified. The PDP member cited four potential reasons for Tinubu's disqualification, including acquiring Guinean citizenship, forfeiting money due to drug-related offenses, failure to disclose these facts to INEC, and submitting a forged Chicago University Certificate.

Tinubu emerged as the winner of the election with the highest number of votes, while Atiku Abubakar of the PDP and Peter Obi of the Labour Party (LP) were his closest rivals. However, Atiku and Obi are currently challenging the election results in court, seeking to disqualify Tinubu and be declared the winners or nullify the election.

The presidential election tribunal, which is hearing the petitions filed by the opposition candidates, is currently in session. The PDP member's allegations regarding Tinubu's disqualification are yet to be ruled upon by the court.

Meanwhile, Reno Omokri, a former aide to ex-president Goodluck Jonathan and also a PDP member, stated that it is false to claim that President Tinubu did not attend Chicago State University. He revealed his findings that Tinubu did attend the American tertiary institution and is considered one of their most accomplished alumni.
