Yusuf Datti Baba-Ahmed, the presidential running mate of the Labour Party (LP), has called for the resignation of President Bola Tinubu and his Vice, Kashim Shettima.

Baba-Ahmed said Senate President Godswill Akpabio should be allowed to conduct another presidential election after the resignation of Tinubu and Shettima.

He made the call during an interview on Arise Television while responding to a question about the possibility of working with Tinubu’s administration.

Baba-Ahmed firmly maintained that Tinubu and Shettima were fraudulently sworn in after the 2023 presidential election. Therefore, the LP would not collaborate with what he deemed an illegitimate government.

In his words, "Can Tinubu and Shettima just resign and let the Senate President conduct another election? They were fraudulently sworn in, and we will not work with an illegitimate government. If it is not constitutional, we are not touching it."

His remarks follow a press conference by the LP presidential candidate, Peter Obi, in which he accused the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and the Supreme Court of incompetence in handling election matters.

One good thing about this year's general election, is that it exposed the hidden desperation in most people.

Who would have thought that Yusuf Datti Baba-Ahmed is as dumb as a door bolt.

The PTSD in Labour party is devastating.

Racoon:
Hehehe! In so much that everything was wrong with this 2023 election, Datti's suggestion of Akpabio conducting another election is highly laughable and pitiable as both Akpabio, Tinubu and Kashim Shettima belong to the same operators of the structure of corruption and criminality.

Yes I agree with daytime and all sane Nigerians worldwide.

Everybody in this universe today knows that what nigeria had in February 2023 wasn't an election. . .

It was simply a SELECTION

And the worst thing is that we selected expired goods
