The Speaker of the House of Representatives, Honourable Femi Gbajabiamila has urged individuals who are dissatisfied with the results of the 2023 presidential election to take legal action.

He recently made this known while expressing optimism that all issues pertaining to the election would be resolved and there would be a smooth change of government.

Gbajabiamila said: ” The constitution of our Republic and the Electoral Act that governs elections in Nigeria both define a framework of post – election dispute resolution and adjudication. This framework exists to protect the integrity of our elections. It ensures that when elections fail to meet expectations, contested issues of facts and law can be resolved through a due process within a legal framework befitting a constitutional democracy”.

Recall that some political parties alongside other stakeholders had accused the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) of allegedly rigging the election process and not fulfilling its promise of a free and fair election
