In a scathing response, the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, has denounced the Economist Intelligence Unit’s (EIU) prediction that the presidential election petition tribunal will uphold President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s victory in the February 25, 2023 election. Atiku has accused the EIU of bias and serving the interests of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
Atiku’s Criticism of EIU’s Report: In a statement released by Atiku’s media aide, Mr. Paul Ibe, the former vice president expressed his disappointment with the EIU’s report, calling it an “embarrassment to the think tank body.” Atiku dismissed the EIU’s prediction as an attempt to defend what he referred to as the “sham election” that retained the ruling party in office.
