In a statement signed by his Media Adviser, Paul Ibe, Atiku described the report “as an embarrassment to the think tank.”
Ibe said: “What is also obvious in the report is that it is merchandise purchased by the ruling APC to confuse the country in an uphill task to defend the sham election of February 25, which only retained the ruling party in office.
“Notwithstanding the preponderance of salient issues raised on the credibility of the so-called election by local and foreign observers, it is disappointing that the EIU would condescend to ballot laundering for the ruling party in the most populous black country.
“While we wish to express our intention to apply cautious restraint in responding to the EIU on this disgraceful outing, let this be considered as a stern warning to the body to respect Nigeria’s democracy and the institution of our judiciary, and that next time, they should be more circumspect before they jump on any trade by barter jaundiced reports about Nigeria.” he said
