Mr. Macaroni, the skit-maker, has argued that the winning margin of Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP), in Lagos, should be way more.
The presidential election was held on Saturday with a total of 18 candidates contesting for Nigeria’s highest office.
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) on Monday announced Obi as the winner of the presidential election held in Lagos state.
Obi polled a total of 582,354 votes to defeat Tinubu of the All Progressive Congress (APC) who secured a total of 572,606 votes.
Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) garnered 75,750 votes, while Rabiu Kwankwaso of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) and Adewole Adebayo of Social Democratic Party (SDP) had 8,442 and 772 respectively.
Reacting to the presidential election results in Lagos, Mr. Macaroni said the people’s power was “underestimated”.
He also said Obi won regardless of the “intimidation,” arguing that “the margin should be way more”.
