In a tweeted message, INEC said it is the only constitutional body empowered to declare the outcome of the election results.
Kindly disregard any “RESULT” you see on Social Media platforms. INEC is the only constitutional body empowered to declare the outcome of the #NigeriaDecides2019 election results. Please be guided!
