The presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Atiku Abubakar, has vowed to continue to challenge the process which he said conferred an illegitimate mandate on the All Progressives Congress, APC, Asiwaju Ahmed Tinubu.
Atiku said this in a statement he signed in Abuja.
According to the statement, the clarification became necessary in the light of a fake press release written in his name stating that he conferred legitimacy on the election which Tinubu allegedly won.
Atiku said the press release did not emanate from him or his office and should be treated with repudiation, untrue, and deliberately contrived by those who illegally appropriated the mandate of the Nigerian people.
The PDP Presidential candidate said for the avoidance of doubt, his lawyers still have his unflinching mandate to challenge the outcome of the February Twenty-five presidential election.
