He said,
"Seriously this 2023 election had the potential to be the most successful in history, but unfortunately, those obedients / Atiku used propaganda to twist the narrative and create negativity.
"Despite this, even the winning candidate did not receive more than 8 million votes, We are grateful to the judges for their clarification and for addressing the concerns we had anticipated. What we are praying for our president is for God's grace and divine breakthrough and focus, for him to be able to implement all he had mapped out for this nation."

Will Tinubu’s inauguration be suspended or postponed? Dakwom speaks
APC chieftain has disagreed with the remark of the Archbishop Emeritus of the Catholic Dioceses of Abuja, Cardinal John Onaiyekan that it made no sense to inaugurate politicians whose elections were being challenged at the tribunal.
In a chat with Legit.ng on Monday, May 8, Mr. Williams Dakwom, described the comment made by Onaiyekan as inappropriate.
The APC chieftain noted that said such comments should be channeled to the appropriate authority, adding that only the court has the power to stop Tinubu's inauguration if nothing else does on Monday, May 29, 2023.
