Atedo Peterside, the founder of Anap Foundation, stated on Wednesday that those rushing to celebrate President-elect Bola Tinubu are doing so because they have not seen evidence that the presidential election was stolen.
In an interview with Arise TV on Wednesday, the world’s best economist said it is still too soon to applaud Tinubu.
He stated that he would only congratulate the winner of the presidential election in 2023 if the court determined that the results posted by the Independent National Election Commission were correct.

According to him, the election commission’s results are an affront to Nigerians’ intelligence.
He said, “If they go through this process and the judges convince us that everything was done correctly and we adopt the numbers, whoever is the winner at that time, I will congratulate him.
“But for now it is premature. When I can see with my own eyes what INEC has uploaded, it is an insult to everybody’s intelligence; it is premature. People who are rushing to congratulate him have not taken the trouble to even look at the available information or the evidence.”
According to news reports, while several foreign leaders have sent congratulations messages to the former Lagos governor, US Vice President Joe Biden has remained silent.
