INEC Declares 2023 Presidential Election Results Official and Authentic

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has reaffirmed the authenticity and official status of the results from the 2023 presidential election.
This declaration comes in response to claims by the Centre for Collaborative Investigative Journalism (CCIJ), which alleged discrepancies between the results published on INEC’s website and those reported by returning officers at the National Collation Centre.
CCIJ’s letter, dated August 7 and addressed to INEC Chairman Prof. Mahmood Yakubu, referenced reports of 1,578 polling units (PUs) where voting was cancelled due to irregularities.
The letter, based on the Freedom of Information Law, noted that while reasons such as overvoting and violence were cited, no specific figures were provided. CCIJ highlighted that the total number of registered voters was approximately 1,205,000.
In response, INEC’s spokesman, Rotimi Oyekanmi, dismissed these claims, stating that the Commission does not announce election results via YouTube and maintained that there are no discrepancies in the reported figures.
Oyekanmi assured that the number of polling units and registered voters remains consistent with the official results announced by INEC.
He explained that results can be cancelled for reasons such as violence, overvoting, or failure to use the Bimodal Voter Accreditation System (BVAS), as outlined in the Electoral Act of 2023 and the INEC Regulations and Guidelines for the Conduct of Elections (2022). He invited the public to review the comprehensive details on INEC’s official website, www.inecnigeria.org.
Oyekanmi emphasized that the results of the 2023 presidential election, as presented by the State Returning Officers and the Returning Officer for the Federal Capital Territory at the National Collation Centre in Abuja, are both official and accurate.
He also disputed CCIJ’s figures from Imo State, asserting that they do not align with the publicly reported results from the Imo State Returning Officer.

Dunamis to Stop Live Broadcasts as Pastor Enenche Urges Members to Attend Church Physically

Dr Paul Enenche, the Senior Pastor of Dunamis International Gospel Centre, has declared an end to live broadcasts of church services. Speaking during Sunday’s service, he urged members to make it a priority to attend church physically rather than relying on watching from home.
Referencing Hebrews 10:25, Pastor Enenche stressed the need for believers to gather together in one place, highlighting that the church assembly plays a vital role in spiritual growth. He noted that virtual participation should no longer be encouraged, except for those living abroad who may not have access to a Dunamis branch.
“For many of you used to watching from your living rooms, this might be the last time,” he said, as the church prepares to shut down live streams on platforms like Dunamis TV, YouTube, and Facebook, which previously aired all Sunday and midweek services.

Tinubu Says Boko Haram is Behind Borno Bombing as He Mourns the Victims

President Bola Tinubu has blamed the recent suicide bombing in Konduga, Borno State, on remaining elements of Boko Haram, saying the attackers now target vulnerable civilians to cause distractions. Deeply upset by the incident, he called on security forces to intensify their operations and completely flush out the insurgents.
In a statement released by his media aide, Bayo Onanuga, Tinubu condemned the attack as cowardly and extended his condolences to the people and government of Borno State. He also directed the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) to step in and support the victims and survivors.
The President further expressed sympathy to families affected by Saturday morning’s explosion in Kano, which occurred at a scrap metal yard. The blast injured 15 people and claimed five lives. Tinubu emphasized the need for proper safety standards in workplaces to prevent such tragedies.

Akpabio Says Tinubu Will Win Big in 2027 as Governor Eno will be Re-elected

Senate President Godswill Akpabio has expressed strong confidence in President Bola Tinubu’s chances of dominating the 2027 presidential election. Speaking at a grand reception in Uyo to welcome Akwa Ibom State Governor Umo Eno into the All Progressives Congress (APC), Akpabio said he believed Tinubu would secure 99.9% of the votes in the upcoming election.
Governor Eno recently left the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) for the APC, blaming unresolved leadership issues within his former party for the switch. Akpabio, addressing the crowd, praised Eno’s political journey, noting how difficult it was for him to become governor. But he assured him that with his new political alignment, things would take a different turn.
He boldly predicted that Eno would become the first governor in the state’s history to be re-elected in 2027, adding that both the governor and President Tinubu were in for a smooth political ride moving forward.
