The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) says it will “redress” the “grievances” of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) regarding the presidential election outcome.
Festus Okoye, INEC national commissioner for information, spoke on Monday while addressing members of the PDP who protested at the commission’s headquarters in Abuja.
KOKO TV had reported how the protesters led by Atiku Abubakar, the PDP standard bearer, marched to INEC’s office to protest the result of the election won by Bola Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress (APC).

The protesters, who were dressed in black, started their demonstration from Legacy House, causing heavy traffic congestion around the Maitama axis.
Okoye said the protest letter received from the PDP will be transmitted to Mahmood Yakubu, INEC national chairman, adding that the “grievances” will be addressed.
“I have received this particular protest letter on behalf of the chairman of INEC and I promise you that this letter will be transmitted to him,” he said.
