Recall that the electoral umpire, the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, had on Tuesday presented Certificates of Return to senators-elect.
Mahmood Yakubu, INEC Chairman, presented the certificates to the winners of the senatorial elections held on February 25 at the National Collation Centre, also known as the International Conference Centre, Abuja.
INEC had last week given President-elect, Bola Tinubu, and Vice President-elect, Kashim Shettima, their certificates as well.
