Those calling for the determination of presidential election petitions before May 29 are “plainly ignorant or crassly mischievous”, Minister of State for Labour and Employment, Mr. Festus Keyamo (SAN), has said. In Keyamo’s view, it is not in opposition parties’ interest for their petitions against the victory of President-elect Bola Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress (APC) to be rushed.
