Reno Omokri, former-aide to ex president Goodluck Jonathan has queried presidential results from Borno and Yobe states.

The Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, on Monday declared President Muhammadu Buhari of the All Progressives Congress winner of Borno State.In Yobe State, Buhari polled 497,914, while Atiku scored 50,763

In Borno state, Buhari is said to be defeating his closest rival, Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, with a wide margin in the 11 LGs.

Reacting, Omokri took to his Twitter page describing presidential results from both states as ‘miracle’ despite bombings and attacks in the states.

According to him: “The greatest miracle of the 21st Century is how Borno and Yobe, the 2 Nigerian states ravaged by war, also became the states with the highest voter turnout in Nigeria.

“Apparently, it is safer to vote in Borno and Yobe than it is to live and work there.

“There are millions of IDPs in Borno and Yobe dislocated from their PUs. There are towns in both states that even armed soldiers fear to enter. Tens of thousands of citizens fled to Cameroon. Yet Borno and Yobe registered the highest voter turnout in Nigeria.”
