The Minister made the statement via his social media page on Monday, expressing confidence that the former Governor of Lagos State would be announced as the winner of the Saturday, February 25th presidential election.
CityNews Nigeria reports that the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and its part-time officials have been working around the clock since Saturday to collate and project results from each polling unit across the Nigerian states before giving its final verdict on the outcome of the polls.
Reacting to results announced so far, Sirika took to his Twitter on Monday to urge Tinubu to prepare his victory acceptance speech ahead of INEC’s declaration.
The Minister expressed disappointment with APC’s performance in some of its strongholds won by the opposition.
“Notwithstanding the irritation in Lagos, Osun, Kano, Katsina, Yobe, Gombe and a couple of others, ‘President-elect’ Sen Bola Ahmed Tinubu should write his acceptance speech now.
“But your Excellency, please make it short, we will sleep early tonight. ‘Zero tension’. Alhamdulillah,” Sirika tweeted.
