Hours after the declaration, the PDP chieftain lauded Tinubu for the win.

“I congratulate Asiwaju Bola Tinubu on his election as the next President of Nigeria,” he tweeted on his handle.

While other candidates have rejected the election and called for its cancellation, Fayose is requesting one thing from them.
“As the presidential election comes to an end, I urge other contestants, especially Atiku Abubakar to accept the outcome in the overall interest of our country. There will always be another day,”  the former governor said.

Fayose, who ruled Ekiti under the umbrella of the PDP, is equally calling for the resignation of the party’s embattled national chairman Ayu.
