IBB Congratulates Tinubu On Presidential Election Victory

Former Military President, Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida (IBB) has congratulated the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu, following his victory in the 25th of February, 2023 presidential election.

Naija News had earlier reported that the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) on Wednesday declared Tinubu as the winner of the election.

The electoral body also presented the certificate of return to the former governor of Lagos State.

IBB commended Nigerians for coming out en mass to vote for their preferred presidential candidate.

The former military president, in a statement released through his media aide, Abdulrauf Idris, called on other presidential candidates to join hands with Tinubu in the business of repairing the nation.

According to IBB, the work of nation-building requires that all hands must be on deck.

He said, “This is a bright moment for Nigeria, we have to take our destiny in our hands and make things work for us as a nation. We cannot continue to do things the same way, and I believe that God will make things work for this country again.”

IBB commended INEC for conducting an election he believes will lead to a new Nigeria.

He further appealed to other candidates to see the emergence of the Tinubu as the will of God.
