In a statement, he pointed to reports of widespread irregularities from various states, some of which he says he personally witnessed. He added that he will seek legal advice before deciding whether to attend the result announcement in Abuja. The withdrawal comes as former Vice President Atiku Abubakar and ex-Minister Rotimi Amaechi lead the contest.
