“The President considers that Nigeria’s democratic credentials have been confirmed by the participation of Presidential Candidates and Political Parties in the 2023 general elections, as well as by the subsequent legal process.

The President calls on his brave rivals to instill in their supporters a sense of patriotism that will always rise above partisanship and manifest itself in support for our government’s efforts to raise the standard of living for all Nigerians.

“President Tinubu once again thanks Nigerians for the mandate given to him to serve our nation while promising to meet and exceed their expectations, by the grace of God Almighty and through very diligent hard work with the team that has been established for that sole purpose,” reads the statement from Tinubu’s office.
