A member of the Presidential Campaign Council of the All Progressives Congress, Dr Abiola Oshodi, has expressed assurance that the president-elect, Bola Tinubu, will deliver his promises to the people of Nigeria.
Tinubu, who was declared winner of the last Saturday’s presidential election, was issued the certificate of return on Wednesday.
Speaking on the victory of the APC in the election, on Thursday, Oshodi said there was a need for Tinubu to start preparing for the task ahead by getting his team ready.
According to him, the president-elect should begin to assemble his team for the task of building a better Nigeria.
He said, “I am excited and happy just like every other Nigerian and lover of democracy. In the end, democracy wins and Nigeria wins. Kudos to the president-elect for a hard-fought and hard-won victory which wasn’t easy in coming.
“His pathway to victory was unusual in that he lost his home state Lagos so that historians will not record that he won because of Lagos votes, he lost Osun state so that historians will not write that he won because of his fellow Yoruba votes, even ABAT lost the traditional KKK states of Kano, Kaduna and Katsina so that historians can dig in and reanalyze his unusual pathway to victory.
“I expect the president-elect to start thinking of assembling his team and how to implement his vision for a new Nigeria and close ranks with other contestants in the spirit of democracy and work towards a better Nigeria.
“I am convinced that he will hit the ground running once his administration is inaugurated on the 29th of May 2023. Asiwaju Bola Tinubu campaigned through all the nooks and crannies of Nigeria and that contributed towards his victory.
“I look forward to the president-elect, being the father of Nigeria despite political differences and political affiliations even as he addresses and focus on radically reforming and, restructuring Nigeria for the common good and begins in earnest the implementation of the agenda in his renewed hope manifesto. He will definitely hit the ground running.”
