Professor Itse-Sagay
The Chairman of the Presidential Advisory Committee Against Corruption (PACAC), Prof. Itse Sagay, has said the 2023 presidential election was not manipulated
The Senior Advocate of Nigeria disclosed this when he appeared on Channels Television’s programme, Sunday Politics.
Sagay while arguing the credibility of the poll cited All Progressives Congress loss in its Lagos State stronghold.
He said the 2023 election is probably Nigeria’s best so far, adding that it was the best representation of the people’s wishes.
Sagay argued that the 2023 elections were determined by ethnicity, religion, and organisational skills.
“But above all, what gave Tinubu the edge was his capacity to organise, plan and plant agencies and supporters and various administrative bodies all over the states in the country, ” the PACAC boss said.
“So, that in my view is the explanation of what happened,” he added. “So, I believe it expressed the true mind of Nigerians as of today. There is something natural about the results.”
He said those aggrieved should seek redress and if they fail, plan better and wait for 2027.
