We won the election and the court detected the invalid votes they mischievously placed during the polls and cancelled them, all the protests they are staging are fake and with the deliberate intention of heating the polity and creating undue tension where there is none.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/nigeria\">Nigeria<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Nigeria.
