The APC’s President-Elect, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu has reacted to the outcome of the 2023 general elections While expressing satisfaction with the outcome of the election so far, Tinubu appreciated the electorates for doing the needful, during the presidential and governorship elections
The former governor of Lagos state also took time out to celebrate and congratulate the winners of the election, the governor and assembly members, noting they earned the mandate of the people
While reacting to the outcome of the 2023 general elections, Tinubu congratulated the winners as he noted they earned the people’s mandate.
He said, “With the conclusion of the Governorship and State Houses of Assembly elections, I congratulate all the elected governors and assembly members for earning the mandate of the people. The March 18 governorship election held across 28 states and the state legislative poll across the 36 states of the federation have brought the 2023 election circle to a fitting close.”
“However, I’m saddened by the reported isolated infractions during the elections and its aftermath in some states. I strongly condemn it. Also, the report of arson after the announcement of governorship results in one state did not represent who we truly are: peace-loving people. “The physical and verbal assaults committed are unacceptable and antithetical to democratic ethos. “Elections should be a celebration of our maturing democracy and freedom of choice and ought not to be moments of grief. I am particularly pained by cases of ethnic slurs, which are capable of creating needless mis-characterisation reported in some locations,” Tinubu stated.
