PRESIDENT TINUBU CONGRATULATES WINNERS OF ELECTIONS IN FCT, KANO AND RIVERS

President Bola Tinubu congratulates the winners of Saturday’s elections in the Federal Capital Territory and the states of Kano and Rivers.

INEC conducted elections in the six area councils of the FCT and by-elections in the Ahoada East II and Khana II state constituencies of Rivers State, as well as in the Kano Municipal and Ungogo constituencies in Kano State.

The President urges the winners to serve with humility, patriotism, and dedication and to view the mandate given to them by the people as a sacred trust.

He commends the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, for his remarkable achievements in the territory, which have yielded political dividends to the governing All Progressives Congress (APC).

The President congratulates the APC national leadership, Kano and Rivers leaderships, and all members of the party on the victories at the polls.

President Tinubu lauds the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), security agencies, and voters for the peaceful and successful conduct of the elections.

He further commends the courage and discipline displayed by all the contestants, stating that democracy is enriched with the vibrancy of participation and competition.

President Tinubu affirms that the successful conduct of the elections further strengthens democratic culture and institutions and calls on INEC to continue improving its efforts to deliver even more exemplary electoral processes.

Ofunaofu:
Don’t post fake results emanating from the APC situation room.

Nigerians asked for the electronic transmission of election results from polling units to be made mandatory. The Tinubu-led APC regime said no, citing insecurity in nine states, a national grid shutdown, and network issues. Yet here they are, setting up situation rooms with internet access to collate what exactly?

Obviously, to generate fake results and spread them around to create confusion.

Thunder 🔥⚡🔥 all of una there

ThiefnubuBandit:
Cheap paid agents. Edo State people don't like Gbola Tinumbu the political fraudster. They even hate that illiterate governor called Monday Okpebholo. Keep deceiving yourself.

Why are you crying this early morning?

Governance is not rocket 🚀 science 🔭. Just in two years+ President Bola Tinubu transformation and renewed hope agenda has brought to fore focus leadership, infrastructure renewal, investment and respect for Nigeria among the committee of nations.

El-Rufai lacks capacity to tap NSA Ribadu’s phone – Rotimi Amaechi

A chieftain of the African Democratic Congress, ADC, Rotimi Amaechi, says former Kaduna State Governor Nasir El-Rufai does not have the capacity to tap the telephone of the National Security Adviser, NSA, Nuhu Ribadu.

Amaechi made this statement on Tuesday while responding to questions in an interview on Eagle.

DAILY POST reports that El-Rufai admitted he and others listened to the telephone conversations of the NSA after tapping his phone, an act that has drawn widespread criticism from various quarters, including the presidency.

Reacting during the interview, Amaechi said, “I doubt that El-Rufai said he hacked NSA Nuhu Ribadu’s phone. He doesn’t have the capacity to do so.

“It’s the NSA’s office that is listening to our calls. Ribadu is busy arresting everybody. He’s planning double elections.

“He’s planning for himself in 2031 and also for Tinubu in the 2027 presidential election.

“All he’s doing is setting up parties to fight the ADC. He has his own fake ADC. Just go to court, he has so many ADC cases with small boys he has bought cars for.

“The man needs to rest. If he thinks there won’t be proper elections in 2027, he’s wasting his time. He should focus on his security job.”

AMINDA:
I don't know what OP wants us to see here. It's an open secret that Elrufai supported his party's candidate in 2023 with gusto and made him President. They didn't have to be bossom friends for that to happen. Elrufai is a founding member of the APC. His signature is on the certificate of incorporation. Tinubu does not own the APC, even though he has now backstabbed all other blocs after winning, forcing them out and personalising the party. Southwesterners call it master strategy but other Nigerians have another name for that.

Why are you always crying?
God Bless Federal Republic of Nigeria
