The Minister of Works and Housing, Babatunde Fashola, has explained how the three major opposition candidates in the March 18th presidential election helped the victory to the President-elect, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu.

Fashola, while speaking during an interview on Channels Television’s Sunday Politics, noted that Obi, Atiku, and Kwankwaso gave Tinubu the victory when they refused to form an alliance ahead of the election.

According to him, it is the inconsistencies within the PDP that saw Tinubu emerge as winner of the 2023 presidential polls.
