Atiku arrived at Legacy House, the presidential campaign headquarters of the PDP at 11am where he joined other PDP leaders who had gathered at the premises and awaiting his arrival.

The protest march took off about 11:10 am. Joined in the march are the PDP National Chairman, Dr. Iyorchia Ayu and other members of the party’s National Working Committee (NWC).

Also joining the protest are the chairman of the PDP Board of Trustees (BoT), Senator Adolphus Wabara; Sokoto State Governor, Aminu Tambuwal; Chief Raymond Dokpesi; former Adamawa State Governor, Boni Haruna among other chieftains. 

Recall that on Wednesday, INEC declared Bola Tinubu, candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), as the winner of the election that was held on February 25.

Tinubu polled 8,794,726 votes to defeat Atiku Abubakar of the PDP who had 6,984,520 votes, and Peter Obi of the Labour Party (LP) who secured 6,101,533 votes.

But the PDP rejected the declaration of Tinubu as the president-elect, saying Atiku won the election.
