Buhari opens up on why Tinubu defeated Atiku, Obi, others

President Muhammadu Buhari has given a reason why the opposition parties lost the 2023 presidential election to the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Buhari, in a veiled message, described Atiku Abubakar and Peter Obi, the candidates of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and the Labour Party, who are major oppositions, as victims of over-confidence.

The president said during the electioneering, the APC was working hard to retain power, and the opposition parties were shrouding themselves in overconfidence.
