His comment comes after the recently concluded election in Ghana, where Vice President Muhammadu Buhari conceded defeat to former President John Dramani Mahama.
Bawumia revealed on Sunday that he had called Mahama to congratulate him on his victory, as he believes it is the will of the people.
Comparing Ghana’s election to that of Nigeria, Shehu Sani bemoans the habit of presidential candidates not congratulating each other after the elections.
Taking to his social media page, Shehu Sani wrote, “Since our independence in 1960, the only presidential candidate who congratulated the winner was Goodluck Jonathan (I stand to be corrected). We no dey congratulate each other after election. Na fight continue until another election. If you decide wait for phone call Congratulation, your battery go die.”
In 2015, Goodluck Jonathan, who was the candidate of the ruling Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, conceded defeat and called Buhari to congratulate him.
It was the first time in the history of Nigeria that the incumbent lost his reelection since post-colonial rule.
Buhari, the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, defeated President Goodluck Jonathan by 15,405,928 votes to 12,663,950 votes, as declared by the chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, Professor Attahiru Jega.
The victory of 72-year-old Buhari showed how he won in all but one of the six South-West states and all but two of the North’s 19 states.
His comment attracted several reactions from Nigerians.
@empror24: Did you congratulate your Senate Candidate opponent when you lost to him in 2023? Leave Atikulate & ObIdient alone o… The battle line is drawn
@Qladele: That is so bad and unnecessary
@iam_paulash: Reasons Goodluck Jonathan is a well-respected figure all over Africa|VIRAL VIDEO!! DID YOU MISS THE UPDATE? THE DATE WILL SHOCK YOU, SCIENTIST PROOFS, ANNOUNCED WHEN THE WORLD WILL END.
@AGINAS: Jonathan lost the elections, and he knows it vividly. You can’t expect Atiku to congratulate Buhari when Buhari clearly lost the election in 2019 to Atiku, and you can’t expect Obi to congratulate this US-convicted drug trafficker when it is clear that he was robbed of his victory in his favor.

@ibrahiemGumau: The judicial branch gives this room for the continuous fight between the opposition by elongating judgements and appeals. Even down the state and local levels, you hardly see them congratulating each other, and when you do, you’re regarded as useless.
@ShagariTob21028: Congratulating your opponent when there are obvious signs of rigging is endorsement of same. Don’t forget that credible elections started with Jonathan & ended with him.During Jonathan, an incumbent governor lost in my state, Nasarawa. The sitting one lost twice but imposed on us.
@MatthewUfu18694: A vivid indication that something is wrong with the electoral process producing the presidents.
@SummarizeTweet: Because they are rigged. Why would anyone congratulate a cheat?
@ogbonna1977: APC destroyed the good work Goodluck started If only APC had continued with credible elections “CONGRATULATIONS” would have continued.|VIRAL VIDEO!! DID YOU MISS THE UPDATE? THE DATE WILL SHOCK YOU, SCIENTIST PROOFS, ANNOUNCED WHEN THE WORLD WILL END.
