Following the agitations of some presidential candidates for the cancellation of 2023 general election, the National Democratic Coalition, NADECO Renewal Group, has insisted that it will not allow anybody to upturn the victory of the President-elect, Bola Tinubu.
The group in a statement signed by its national leader, Prof. Atilade Adeeyo, advised the presidential candidates to accept the outcome of the exercise and embrace national unity.
Adeeyo said the emergence of Tinubu as the President-elect is one of the best things that happened to Nigeria in recent times. He advised the candidates that their move to upturn the election through court is an exercise in futility.
He said, “Tinubu is a strategic and patriotic leader whose strong political structure spread across the six geo-political zones of the country.
“He won the elections partly because he is a beautiful bride that all Nigerians love. President-elect, Sen. Bola Tinubu has an impressive track record as a great, patriotic leader.
“He displayed this uncommon leadership trait when he served as the governor of Lagos State. He deployed competence and enduring capacities of a pan-Nigeria cabinet in his government to achieve giant strides in Lagos State and we all are witnesses to the awesome development that state has got.
“This is the more reason why Nigerians will experience the best of governance under his watch as president.
“We can also assure our teeming youths to be rest assured that Tinubu will ensure that their yearnings for a greater future is taken care of when he mounts the saddle of power.
“We are standing up for our nation and Nigeria will work again. The families of those that died in the post-annulment of the 1993 presidential election will wish the annulment never happened.
“I speak for thousands of members in the NADECO Renewal Group, and urge Nigerians to allow peace to reign so that we can enjoy the renewed hope promised by the president-elect.”
