Ahmadu Fintiri, the Governor of Adamawa State, has totally condemned the outcome of the Edo State governorship election, saying he weeps for Nigeria’s democracy.
Fintiri made this known while reacting to the results of the election in Edo saying, saying the exercise is shameful.
“I weep for Nigeria’s democracy after witnessing the shameful Edo Gubernatorial poll. The APC’s desperate attempts to discredit me by falsely claiming I announced results won’t distract from the real issue.
“What’s truly shameful is APC’s national chairman flying into Edo with a private jet on election day, defying movement restrictions, while their governors used armoured escorts to intimidate voters.
“This blatant disregard for democratic norms is the real brigandage. Nigerians are outraged, slamming INEC for compromising and favoring APC.
We must condemn this rape of democracy and demand accountability. The world is watching, and Nigeria deserves better.”
