Following the conduct of the governorship election, the 2023 Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, has expressed a lack of confidence in the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC.

Atiku said INEC has not proven it can perform better than its previous conduct of elections. The former Vice President spoke in Jimeta, Yola area of Adamawa State. “I still don’t believe in INEC. I have seen nothing up to now to believe that their performance will be better in how they handle this election than the last one,” he said. Atiku lost the 2023 presidential election to Bola Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress, APC. Following his defeat, he headed to court to contest the outcome of the presidential election, which he claimed was flawed.
