While speaking at a press conference in Abuja today Jan. 18th, Minister
of Information & Culture, Lai Mohammed, gave reason why President
Buhari has not congratulated Bayelsa state governor, Seriake Dickson, on
his re-election as the governor of the state. Seriake who was the PDP
flag bearer in the keenly contested election, beat Timipre Sylva who was
the APC candidat
"This president is not in the business of interfering and intervening in
elections. What if he sent a congratulatory message and they go to
court and the election is overturned, will he call back the
congratulatory message? This president believes that the presidency
should be insulated from the conduct of elections and their outcomes"he
said
