Even the days of big card readers and even the days when we were using paper voter cards, FCT has always been a very difficult place to rig at the polling units,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNow, even in these elections, there were so many irregularities, a lot of places where I could also come and say \u2018Yes, I won and I won by a huge margin\u2019 but there were so many places where there was irregularities and rigging. I think my votes would have been a lot more but at the end of the day you can only do those things at the collation centre.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe results at the polling unit are still there but we had such a huge support that there\u2019s no need squabbling over a few votes so most people do know that the FCT is different. You cannot influence the electorate, you cannot force them, you cannot shoot them, the embassies are there, the observers, most of them are there and that\u2019s the truth of the matter.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kingibe said the constitution was not obeyed in the declaration of Bola Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress (APC) as president-elect.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIts always been understood that every presidential candidate must win 25% in the FCT, it is in the constitution, its always been understood,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNow, if things are being said that you need to brush aside that constitutional requirement, well, that\u2019s news to us because we worked hard to make sure that the Labour Party president got at least that 25 percent or more because we knew we had to have it right.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Obi has filed a petition at the presidential election tribunal challenging Tinubu\u2019s victory.<\/p>\n<p>Tinubu secured 8,794,726 votes, Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) had 6,984,520, and Obi polled 6,101,533.<\/p>\n<p>In the petition, Obi argued that the president-elect \u201cwas not duly elected by majority of the lawful votes cast at the time of the election\u201d.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ireti Kingibe, senator-elect, has revealed why Peter Obi, presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP), won in the federal capital territory (FCT).
