Festus Keyamo, the spokesperson for the Tinubu Presidential Campaign Council, has claimed that the camps of Peter Obi and Atiku Abubakar want them to remain silent so that they can spread lies about the 2023 election and its outcome.
Keyamo, who is also Nigeria’s Minister of State for Labour and Employment, stated that so far, all unfounded allegations leveled against the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu, who is now the president-elect, have been successfully refuted.
The Minister went on to describe the opposition camps as “sour losers” who want to tarnish the legitimacy of Tinubu’s victory in a tweet on Saturday.
According to him, the allegation that the APC camp is campaigning for victory is false because their camp will not remain silent while the opposition spreads lies about them.
After the announcement of the results of the elections, the sore losers have continued propagating unfounded claims aimed at delegitimising the mandate of the President-elect. We have countered these unfounded claims at every point in time and this is what they have interpreted as ‘campaigning after our victory’. No, it is not campaigning. It is defending our mandate against these lies. In reality, they want us to be quiet whilst they run amok with their lies. They have found us hard nuts to crack! Keyamo tweeted.
