Presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congres, Bola Tinubu, has urged residents of Lagos to shun any act of violence after he lost to Peter Obi in the presidential election held in the state.
Candidate of the Labour Party (LP), Peter Obi, has been declared the winner in Lagos, the home state of Tinubu, which has always been a stronghold of the former Lagos governor
According to a statement released hours after Obi was decalred winner by the state residentt electoral commisioner, Tinubu said the result of the election should not spark off provocations.
“The fact that the APC narrowly lost Lagos state to another party should not be the reason for violence. As a democrat, you win some, you lose some. We must allow the process to continue unhindered across the country while we maintain peace and decorum,” he said
