The attention of the Economic Community of West African States, ECOWAS, the African Union, AU, and the United Nations, UN, have called on all candidates, political parties and electorate who participated in the presidential election of February 23, 2019 to continue to exercise patience, calm and restraint and allow for the full results of the election to be released by the Independent National Elections Commission, INEC.

Reacting to the rejection of the results released so far by the INEC, the international organisations said that the process of releasing election results is still on.

“At the conclusion of the process, all aggrieved parties and persons are encouraged to resort to legal means to seek redress, in accordance with the Constitution and relevant laws of Nigeria, and as previously agreed in the Peace Accord of 13 February, 2019,” the statement said.
