The Coalition of South East Youth Leaders, COSEYL, has challenged the Independent National Electoral Commission to prove his innocence by walking on the streets of Abuja without security personnel following allegations of corruption leveled against him.
The Independent National Electoral Commission had earlier announced the standard flagbearer of the All Progressives Congress, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu as the winner of the 2023 presidential election.
Recall that Bola Ahmed Tinubu, a former Governor of Lagos State and National Leader of the All Progressives Congress defeated other strong contenders including Peter Obi of the Labour Party, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party and Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso of the New Nigeria Peoples Party to clinch the apex political seat in the country. He has since been sworn in as the 16th president of Nigeria.
The presidential candidates of the Labour Party, Peter Obi and that of the Peoples Democratic Party, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar are currently challenging the victory of Bola Ahmed Tinubu in the Presidential Election Tribunal in Abuja. The presidential election Tribunal commenced sitting few weeks ago to hear the cases by the parties.
The Coalition of South East Youth Leaders, COSEYL in a statement on Saturday by its President General of COSEYL, Goodluck Ibem “asked the INEC boss to walk on the streets of Abuja on foot without security for 30 minutes if his conscience is clear that he conducted a free and fair 2023 general elections using the Bimodal Verification Accreditation System, BVAS, for all the elections”
