Reacting to his refusal, Odumakin maintained that it was a big shame that the President has refused to sign the Electoral Act for the fourth time.

“Which document is perfect anywhere in the world? Most Supreme Court judgements errors are found in it, let the Judiciary interpret and not you. I think the bottom line is that they are afraid of the card readers and electronic transition of results.
“Looking at the statistics that came out now, about 13.5m people voted in 2015 without card readers and it seems many of them voted for the President, so its the repetition of that they want nothing more nothing less.”
On Buhari’s refusal being a plot to rig 2019 election, Odumakin said, “Clearly and its unfortunate for a man who went to the Supreme Court three times that he was rigged out of elections and cried before Nigerians over rigging.
“Since he came into office, we expected that like Yar’Adua who upon coming into office admitted that the election before him was not perfect but lets have electoral reforms but Buhari has not initiated one to improve our election system, which made him to go to Supreme Court three times and is now refusing to sign the electoral act, its a big shame.”
