Prof Mahmood Yakubu lacks credibility to conduct further elections having colluded with the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), to subvert the will of Nigerians judging by the condemnations that trailed the results by the international community, which includes, but not limited to the world renowned Chatam House, US Ambassador to Nigeria, EU observers and a retinue of global media outlets.”

Peace-Udochukwu further appealed to LP members across the country to come out in their numbers,like they did in the presidential elections, and vote for candidates of the party. He assured that the stolen mandate of the party would be restored.

LP FCT chairman, Peter Chukwuemeka, on his part described the presidential election as a rape of democracy. He said Nigerians would not be tired of fighting for a new Nigeria.

“We can only celebrate when the right thing is done and then we will have a new Nigeria,” he said.
