Former Secretary to the Government of the Federation, SGF, Babachir Lawal, has revealed that the 2023 Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, actually won the election.
Lawal made this revelation while answering questions in an interview on Channels Television’s Politics Tonight on Monday.
He said that based on the facts available to him, Obi won the election that produced Bola Tinubu as Nigeria’s 16th president.
The erstwhile SGF maintained that President Tinubu did not win the election, stressing that the result available to him at that time showed he did not win the election.
While solidifying his clam, Lawal reiterated that they monitored the election, collected data and monitored the results from the fields.
He added that some of the results were altered.
When asked what was President Tinubu’s offence against him, Lawal said the president is arrogant.
“He is arrogant. The guy has an arrogance that belies definitions.
“The problem with Bola Tinubu is that he thinks I’m the one that offended him. I didn’t offend him, he offended me and he is full of himself, and he thinks that he now so-called president…I believe he didn’t win the election,” he said.
