National Leader of the All
Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Tinubu has told Nigerians not to be
angry with the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, but assist them to overcome their
colossal defeat.
Tinubu, who met with President
Muhammadu Buhari in Makkah, Saudi Arabia, enjoined the citizens to consider the
enormity of challenges facing the nation and support the president.
He also urged Nigerians to rally
round Buhari to solve the problems and stabilize the polity.
“The President worked hard and
will continue to do so to ensure peace and stability in the country, which are
important for the economy to make progress. These are the key pegs of his
agenda. Let us all come together to support him,” he said.
According to Tinubu, the Peoples
Democratic Party is reputed for “saucy and distractive statements’’.
He, therefore, urged Nigerians
not to be angry with the opposition party, but assist them to overcome their
“colossal defeat” in the Feb. 2019 elections.
“Don’t blame them. They are
handicapped by the traumatic feelings of the colossal loss of the election. You
should help them to manage the trauma,” he added.
The APC national leader commended
Buhari for the recognition of June 12 as the nation’s Democracy Day.
Tinubu appealed to elderly
Nigerians to avoid inflammatory statements that could undermine peaceful
co-existence among the nation’s diverse communities.
However, the dinner with the
president was also attended by the Sultan of Sokoto, Alhaji Muhammadu Sa’ad
Abubakar III, and Emir of Kazaure, Dr Najib Hussaini Adamu,
The Sultan led prayers for Buhari’s
second term in office and for the nation to overcome current challenges.
Other guests at the Iftar dinner
were: Nigerian Ambassador to Saudi Arabia, Justice Isa Dodo (rtd.), Malam
Mamman Daura, Isma’ila Isa, Mr Wale Tinubu and Mr Hakeem P. Fahm, the
Commissioner of Science and Technology, Lagos State.
