Bola Tinubu, the APC national leader, described Muhammadu Buhari’s victory as the finest moment in the political history of Nigeria.
The former governor of Lagos state made a claim after the Independent National Electoral Commission announced in the night of April 1 that the APC candidate won the the presidential election.
He was quoted as saying by PM News:
“It is a moment when hope is re-born, faith is rekindled and a fresh fire of patriotism is released for the task ahead. I congratulate General Buhari, Nigeria’s President elect on his hard won victory.”
Tinubu expressed confidence that the APC would deliver a prosperous future for Nigeria and promised to work hard to achieve this goal.
“I salute our galant party leaders and members for running the long distance to victory. To millions of Nigerians I say this – the APC seeks not power for its sake, but for the purpose of bringing a better life to our people and re-building our country.
“This is also democracy’ s finest moment. Nigerians alive today have witnessed the beginning of an era of change . They made this happen and they are the true celebrants and they are deserving. Together we share this victory. Side by side we would work together to bring our country back.”
It is worth noting that although President Goodluck Jonathan officially congratulated Buhari on the victory, the Peoples Democratic Party agent said they would challenge the election outcome in court.
