The president’s wife, Aisha Buhari, stated on Wednesday that the goals of Nigeria’s founding fathers will come true under the leadership of president-elect Bola Ahmed Tinubu and vice president-elect Kashim Shettima.
This was announced in a congratulations letter that the First Lady personally signed in Abuja.
Recall that Tinubu defeated Peter Obi of the Labour Party and Atiku Abubakar of the PDP by a margin of 8,805,420 votes.
“It is my conviction that the Tinubu/Shettima Presidency will lead this country into the future that our founding fathers envisioned,” Mrs Buhari said.
Aisha, however, said the success recorded in last Saturday’s election was a result of dexterity, foresight and good intentions of Tinubu to carry all Nigerians along, irrespective of their ethnic and religious background.
She thanked all Nigerians, particularly women, for their efforts towards the success of the APC at the elections.
Mrs. Buhari also congratulated her successor, Senator Oluremi Tinubu, expressing her belief that Nigerian women will receive a good deal during her tenure.
