It is the greatest honor any Nigerian can receive to be mandated by the people and asked to lead Nigeria. The road to the presidency has taken several years and a lot of hard work on his part, and for his efforts to be crowned with success is Allah’s way of rewarding all his good deeds and dua deprived of him.
People have asked me why I openly supported your candidacy when others opposed you. I have received insults and threats against my life and my business because of my personal choice, which I have never imposed on anyone else. I will continue to support you because I have experienced your leadership in Lagos and your achievements as a public servant. I have also admired your ability to adapt to the times and how you have supported the dreams and ideas of so many young people. That being said, I will always stand on the side of the people and Nigeria above anyone else, and I think I speak for all of us when I say that we need peace and stability in the country.
The office of president is a great responsibility, which requires humility, intelligence and courage to govern successfully. These are qualities I know you have. I also know that you understand better than anyone the seriousness of your role as president. After all, he has been preparing for this role since his days at NADECO in 1993 and the role he took on defending MKO Abiola’s candidacy for president during the June 12 protests.”
