“A blatantly STOLEN election?” – Read Reactions as Nigerians slam British Prime Minister, Rishi Sunak for congratulating Tinubu

Whatttt? A blatantly STOLEN election? You need to check your Nigeria adviser. Really bad form.

Dear Prime Minister Rishi, are you using the exalted office of UK prime minister to endorse election rigging?
Are you endorsing electoral fraud?
Are you endorsing election violence?

Someone stole the mandate of the Nigerian people & you are endorsing it?

You should be impeached https://t.co/qQvXGTKVpl

This is to tell y'all that the world will accept whoever you vote. You see that mad man in your street if he bullies his way to the presidency the world will congratulate him and you become the least of mad men. QED! https://t.co/etx0Beq6gs

This is an inaccurate tweet. There is no victory. There’s a contested election with clear evidence of vote tampering and voter disenfranchisement. A country yet again on the brink https://t.co/OEuB0cRMQy

Nigerians will hold @RishiSunak responsible for encouraging a truncated electoral process.
Throughout the election period @RishiSunak did not condemn the massive election rigging but was quick to congratulate the outcome of the electoral fraud

I consider this a mistake dear Prime Minister. Are you trying to endorse fraud? The election was illegitimate, & the so-called winner does not have the support of majority of Nigerians. The election is a threat to our democracy. A theft of such magnitude must not be condoled. https://t.co/l0XlC9zsxQ

You're a big disgrace to democracy. Take down your vile congratulatory message to a stolen mandate, apologize to the people of Nigeria and RESIGN. A HUGE SHAME!! https://t.co/fBDZQXDdVn

The EU observers noticed manipulations in the results, we #Nigerians don't accept the results. https://t.co/OGSXYueemt

I've always maintained this.

The interest of the west in our affairs is never to inspire liberation, but one that would keep us in the doldrums of perennial backwardness to further their imperialistic hold on their former colonies. https://t.co/JxcQIQHbpV

It's shameful how the UK @10DowningStreet preaches democracy but it's the first to align with those who denigrate democracy.

Haven't you gotten intelligence report from your MI6 station in Abuja with regards to the charade conducted by INEC? https://t.co/QYrAPbz2LO

LOL.

This is a slap on Nigeria democracy and insult to millions of Nigeria youths whose mandate was stolen by Tinubu with the assistance of Mahmood Yakubu. Mahmood Yakubu hands are covered by the blood of innocent Nigerians youths who lost their lives during this election. https://t.co/7gSqnDLqdU

You should delete, you can see clearly by the quotes and replies that he is not our rightful President. @PeterObi remains our choice. The man the people voted in?? https://t.co/e9DyA0l7Be

@RishiSunak you cannot say you are not aware of the current political crisis going on in Nigeria. You cannot say you have not been briefed on the verdict from international observers on the level of electoral malfeasance. This was premature! Rishi … orishirishi ????? https://t.co/rDHIwjMfDH
