The speaker of the House of Representatives and Governor Elect of Sokoto State, Alhaji Aminu Tambuwa says the President Elect, Gen.Muhammadu Buhari will be a Nigerian President and not President of the All Progressives Congress (APC), saying that the President will ensure justice to both the people of the South South and South East in the sharing of political positions.
He said the leadership of the party is consulting on how to zone political offices across the country, asserting that contrary to the believe that the APC is being torn apart over sharing of political offices, “the party is consulting and I am sure after consultation the party will announce its decision”.
Tambuwal stated this Sunday shortly after he was given a traditional title, the Onosejile (God sent) of Opoji kingdom by the Onojie of Opoji, His Royal Highness Ehidiamen Aidonojie 1. The Speaker in company of Governor Adams Oshiomhole had earlier paid a condolence visit to the Minority Whip of the House, Mr Samson Osagie, at Urhokosa, Uhumnwonde Local Government Area of Edo State.
Speaker Tambuwal who apparently was referring to President Goodluck Jonathan as a PDP President, noted that since the election of Gen.Buhari as President, Nigerians have been calm and hopeful for better days to come.
According to him, “now we have a brand new President, elections are over and the country is calm and quiet. All of us elected officials dedicate this victory to God Almighty. It is only God Almighty that gives power and he takes it away from whoever he designs at any time. Let me assure all Nigerians that our party, particularly the President Elect, Gen.Buhari will do justice to all manners of people of this great nation.
“He is a great man that is aware of the enormity of responsibilities as President of all and not President of a political party. And indeed in particular, the people of the South South and South East, President Buhari will be fair and very kind to all of us as soon as he resumes office come May 29” he stated.
While expressing his appreciation to the people of Opoji Kingdom and the traditional rulers, Tambuwal pointed out that “I am particularly happy with His Highness for all his prayers both when i was tear gassed at the National Assembly by the police and during my election as Governor. Opoji is my second home and I am very grateful for this title”. Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday
