Defeated presidential candidate of the PDP, Atiku Abubakar is insisting that he won the 2019 presidential election.
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) named President Buhari winner of the February 23 election with 15,191,847 of the total votes cast while Atiku gained 11,262,978 votes.
However, in a recent petition filed before the Presidential Election Petitions Tribunal in March, Atiku has claimed he won the polls with 1.6 million more votes than Buhari according to an inside compilation of results that was obtained from INEC’s server.
Responding to the tribunal days back, INEC said Atiku and his party are the ones sharing fake results to prove their case.
Reacting to this, Atiku has said he is ready to ask Microsoft, IBM and Oracle experts to prove the allegations were indeed true.
His words, “The servers from which the said figures were derived belong to the 1st respondent (INEC). The figures and votes were transmitted to the 1st respondent’s Presidential result’s server 1 and thereafter aggregated in INEC_PRES_RSLT_SRV2019 whose physical address or unique Mac address as 94-57-A5-DC-64-B9 with Microsoft Product ID 00252-70000-0000-AA535. The descriptions are unique to the 1st respondent’s server.
“The petitioners will at the trial of this petition rely on experts on Microsoft, IBM and Oracle, amongst others.”
