Spokesman for the President-elect, Festus Keyamo on Monday said he kept laughing so loud when he sees people searching the constitution to see a section to disqualify Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, winner of the presidential election.
Keyamo, in a tweet, said some people kept on searching the constitution from sections 1 to 320 looking for loop holes to seek disqualification of someone who had won a valid election.
He likened them to France protesting to FIFA after the 2022 World Cup trophy was seated comfortably in Buenos Aires in Argentina.
Keyamo stated that the ignorance and illiteracy in this regard was so profound that it became very entertaining when the fellows now turned around and made memes and caricature of others.
He wrote: “I keep laughing out so loud when I see people who have been roundly defeated in an election putting on their glasses everyday and reading sections 1 to 320 of our Constitution over and over again and hosting Twitter spaces here and there to see which sections they can use to disqualify the winner who is preparing to take his Oath of Office and after pleadings in respect of the Election Petitions have all been exchanged.
“It’s like France protesting to FIFA after the 2022 World Cup trophy is seated comfortably in Buenos Aires in Argentina. The ignorance and illiteracy in this regard is so profound that it becomes very entertaining when these ignorant fellows now turn around and make memes and caricature of others.”
