The Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), Boss Mustapha, has dared Atiku Abubakar, presidential candidate of the People Democratic Party (PDP) in the just-concluded general elections, to take President Muhammadu Buhari to court.
Buhari, of the All Progressives Congress (APC), polled 15,191,847 votes to defeat Atiku, who had 11,262,978 votes.
Atiku has however rejected the outcome of the election, describing it as the worst in Nigeria’s history.
However, Mustapha speaking to State House correspondent after a dinner hosted by President Buhari for some of the APC members at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, said there was nothing to worry about.
“We are not jittery at all because the process was open and transparent. It was a credible election and we will continue to savour the victory.
“In the process too, we will extend the hand of friendship for the purpose of nation building and reconciliation.
“Our electoral act and the constitution have both provided a window for whoever is dissatisfied with the process of election to seek redress. That is the path and we will encourage them to go along that path,” Mustapha said.
