Senate President, Bukola Saraki, has denied reports that he congratulated the All Progressives Congress (APC) senator-elect, Ibrahim Oloriegbe.
Oloriegbe defeated Saraki in the National Assembly election held on Saturday for Kwara Central Senatorial District.
Saraki’s spokeman, Yusuph Olaniyonu, in a statement on Monday urged party supporters to disregard the report which claimed Saraki conceded defeat to Oloriegbe.
He said: “The public should disregard any fictitious statements being issued and shared on WhatsApp. Our position on the election will be communicated later today (Monday).
“In the interim, the APC should stop issuing statements congratulating itself and ascribing it to our camp.”
