Looking forward to May 29 when he would be sworn-in as the 16th president of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the man with the cleanest mandate in the history of the country, has assured Nigerians that he will hit the ground running in earnest.
The former Lagos State governor promised to run a fair and all-inclusive administration to foster unity in the country.
The President-elect spoke yesterday in Abuja when he hosted members of his All Progressives Congress (APC) National Working Committee (NWC).
They were led by the party’s National Chairman, Senator Abdullahi Adamu, on a congratulatory visit to Tinubu in his Abuja Asokoro residence.
His words : “My administration is going to be a fair government guided by the rule of law, justice and fairness. It is going to be hard work from day one and we are going to join hands in building a government of the people and by the people.
“We drew a strong commitment with Nigerians. From the primary we were transparent. We were committed to our ideals. We promised Nigerians that if we win we will work for all Nigerians.”
Reiterating his commitment, the president-for-all, Tinubu said: “I am committed to uniting the country. Definitely in any contest, particularly democratic contest, there must be losers and winners.”
Adamu said though transition elections are always tough for ruling parties, the victory of the APC was long foreseen.
He said the APC NWC came to identify with Asiwaju Tinubu and congratulate him on his victory.
During the visit Adamu directed other members of the NWC to offer special prayers of gratitude to God for the party’s success which he described as hard-fought.
