President Muhammadu Buhari heartily congratulates the winner of the (2023) Presidential Election, the candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
Reacting to the results just announced, President Buhari said:
“I congratulate His Excellency Bola Ahmed Tinubu on his victory. Elected by the people, he is the best person for the job. I shall now work with him and his team to ensure an orderly handover of power.
“The election was Africa’s largest democratic exercise. In a region that has undergone backsliding and military coups in recent years, this election demonstrates democracy’s continued relevance and capability to deliver for the people it serves.
“Within Nigeria, the results reveal democracy’s ripening in our country. Never has the electoral map shifted so drastically in one cycle. In the presidential elections, states in all regions across the nation changed colour. Some amongst you may have noticed my home state amongst them. The winning candidate did not carry his own home state either. That happens during a competitive election. Votes and those that cast them cannot be taken for granted. Each must be earned. Competition is good for our democracy. There is no doubt the people’s decision has been rendered in the results we look at today.
“That is not to say the exercise was without fault. For instance, there were technical problems with electronic transmission of the results. Of course, there will be areas that need work to bring further transparency and credibility to the voting procedure. However, none of the issues registered represent a challenge to the freeness and fairness of the elections.
“I know some politicians and candidates may not agree with this view. That too is fine. If any candidate believes they can prove the fraud they claim is committed against them, then bring forward the evidence. If they cannot, then we must conclude that the election was indeed the people’s will – no matter how hard that may be for the losers to accept. If they feel the need to challenge, please take it to the courts, not to the streets.
“However, to do the latter means they are not doing it in the interest of the people, but rather to inflame, to put people in harm’s way and all for personal, selfish gains.
“After a degree of polarization that necessarily accompanies any election, it is now time to come together and act responsibly. I call on all candidates to remember the peace pledge they signed just days before the election. Do not undermine the credibility of INEC. Let us now move forward as one. The people have spoken.”
If the election was rigged it was either the PDP or the LP that riģged it. How was it possible for LP to win Lagos, Nasarawa, Plateau and some Local Councils in Kaduna if not for a fair and free elections. Are the APC Governors of those states fools enough not to rig the elections in their favour? How about the results from the South East, where the LP claimed a landslide victory with APC getting few thousands votes? Was the results rig in favour of the LP?.
I see no sense in all this
of course, you won’t see anything wrong with it, CORN has covered your eyes.
Your IQ is very slow.
Mr Jubri the second,it is obvious that you have finally carried out the assignment which you are been hired for by the APC and am very convinced that you are nothing but an imposter. But i will only pray one prayer for you as you retired back to your country Sudan, CHUKWU OKIKE ABIAMA WILL NEVER LET YOU GO UNPUNISHED FOR THIS PAIN THAT YOU HAVE INFLICTED TO THE CITIZENS OF NIGERIA AT LARGE….
Any way them carry us go GOD the seeooo him go help us
Does LP believe that it would ever carry Lagos and PDP carry Osun in a repeat election? es, the election had hitches but the hitches were in favour of LP and PDP?
