She also reflected on the forthcoming presidential election tribunal urging the presiding panel at the Supreme Court to have a fear of God at the back of their minds and honour the wish of the masses.

Omakwu further urged electorates who feel disappointed over the outcome of the presidential polls not to back down or dispose of their permanent voter's card (PVC).

She said:

"Please don’t destroy your PVCs. Your PVCs retired some old politicians, keeping your PVCs allows you to retire some governors and members of the state house of assembly who have been there a long time and have nothing to show for it on Saturday the 11th of March."
