The All Progressives Congress (APC) has said that President Muhammadu Buhari will concede defeat and congratulate the winner if he loses Saturday’s presidential poll, Igberetvnews reports.
The APC however noted that the election has to be free, fair and credible for that to happen.
This was disclosed by the deputy director-general of the APC Campaign council, Waziri Bulama while addressing newsmen in Abuja on Thursday.
Although Mr Bulama said it’s impossible for the party to lose the election he however stated the electorate has the final say.
“The outcome of this election, if free, fair and credible would be accepted by President Muhammad Buhari and by the party,” the deputy DG said.
“If we win, which is very, very likely we will congratulate Nigerians for having participated in a free, fair and peaceful election. That is number one. Number two, we are not even going to celebrate or over celebrate because an election success of President Muhammadu Buhari is another burden on him and this man would want to do more than he has done.
“So, we will humbly thank Nigerians for given us their votes for another four years to build on what we have done. But in the event Nigerians decided, in a free, fair and credible election to give their votes to another person, President Muhammadu Buhari will still thank Nigerians and will call the person that eventually won the election and congratulate him,” Bulama said.
