Baba-Ahmed asked the Senate President, Godswill Akpabio, to conduct another presidential election.

In the interview, the LP chieftain seriously lambasted the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).

His words:

“Labour Party won the 2023 presidential elections; no doubt about it. They (APC) are cheats, they are bullies and they have taken full advantage of the situation in Nigeria.
“Can Tinubu and Shettima just resign and let the Senate President conduct another election? They were fraudulently sworn in, and we will not work with an illegitimate government.
"If it is not constitutional, we are not touching it.”
