According to a statement issued by Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Mallam Garba Shehu, following the party’s success in the presidential election last Saturday, Buhari’s visitors were paying him a “thank you call” to express their appreciation.
The certificates were presented to them by Prof. Mahmood Yakubu, Head of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) at the International Conference Centre (ICC), Abuja.
In related news, the Presidential Flagbearer of Labour Party, Peter Obi, has declared that his party won the election and he will explore all legal and peaceful means to prove it.

His words,
“We’ll explore all legal options to retrieve our mandate. We won the election. I’m fully committed to a better future for the country and nothing can stop that.
