“I will not respond to questions that fall outside our discussion. This is not a court of law. Please do not cross-examine me — I won’t accept that.

“If you attempt to cross-examine me, I will not answer. And if you ask any question I find offensive, I will decline to respond.”

Reacting, Onanuga accused the journalist of spreading misinformation and harbouring deep-seated hostility toward the ruling party, allegedly aimed at appealing to his online followers.

He maintained that the result sheet referenced by Oseni clearly reflected the total votes recorded at the polling unit and that the APC’s figures aligned with the overall tally.

Onanuga also defended President Bola Tinubu’s administration, asserting that Tinubu’s leadership is divinely ordained.
