President-elect Asiwaju Bola Tinubu recently said that in order to win the 2023 presidential election, he had to endure a difficult and exhausting political campaign. The former governor of Lagos State said this on Wednesday during his remarks at the opening of the Rumuokwuta/Rumuola flypast in Port Harcourt.
Notwithstanding the obstacles and campaigns the opposing party waged against him, Tinubu said he was pleased to win the recently held presidential election. He put up a valiant fight throughout the election to win.
It is a privilege and an honour to be with you today. I’m a really content dude. He stated, “I’m happy because I underwent a horrific campaign, battled hard, had much of your support, and won.
Nonetheless, Tinubu reaffirmed that his administration will not ignore any region of the nation. He pledged to leave a lasting legacy in every region of Nigeria. I’ll never forget how important this state’s amazing and fantastic people were to my successful bid to become the next president of this nation. I will always be grateful to you,” he stated.
He also thanked Nyesom Wike, the governor of Rivers State, for his selfless leadership and for holding the fundamental position that the South should regain the presidency. “In governor Wike, his excellency, I see a man of principles. He is a man of remarkable integrity, in fact. He made the decision to serve the interests of the country and the residents of Rivers State, not his own. I appreciate his sacrificial leadership, Tinubu stated.
Tinubu’s victory in the presidential election was declared by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), but the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) and Labour Party are contesting the decision (LP). Yet, despite the difficulties, Tinubu has pledged to govern the nation with justice and equity.
An important occasion was the opening of the Rumuokwuta/Rumuola flyover in Port Harcourt, which would assist to reducing the area’s traffic congestion. The initiative, for which Tinubu thanked the governor of Rivers State, was termed a legacy project that will help future generations.
Tinubu’s electoral triumph is a crucial turning point for the All Progressives Congress (APC) and a fantastic accomplishment for Tinubu, who has long dominated Nigerian politics. His election has also raised discussions about Nigerian politics’ future and how regional politics affect who leads the nation.
Tinubu’s victory in the presidential race shows how committed and hard-working he has been to Nigerian politics. Notwithstanding his difficulties during the race, he won and has pledged to govern the nation with justice and equity.
