Contrary to his assurance, the Commission is yet to announce the winner of the 2023 presidential election.

In a press release, the commission claimed that they are experiencing technical hitches with the INEC Result Viewing Portal (IReV) which has contributed to the delay in uploading results to the portal.

This Online Newspaper gathered that there have been lots of attacks by opposition parties and results manipulations in some polling units across the country with no effort from INEC or its security agents to resolve the challenges.

Reacting to the situation, Sen. San wrote; “Nigeria’s most expensive election in history. In elections, when there is delay, there is magic.”
