Breaking News: General Buhari Receives Certificate Of RET
He acknowledged the contributions of some stakeholders to the conduct of the elections.
After receiving the certificate, General Buhari made an official acceptance speech.
“Victory For Nigeria”
He said that his administration would listen to all Ngierians.
“I am most grateful to God for this day and hour. I feel honoured by Nigerians.
“The official announcement by INEC was a moment that Nigerians were waiting for.
“Today, history is being made and change has come.
“My team and I shall faithfully serve you.
“There shall no longer be a ruling party again. The APC will be your governing party.
“We shall never rule over the people as if there are subservient to the government. Our long night has passed and the day light of new democratic governance has broken across the land. This, therefore, is not a victory for me or one man or even one party.
“It is a victory for Nigeria and for all Nigerians,” he said.
“Another Form Of Evil”
General Buhari thanked Nigerians for giving him an opportunity to serve, promising that his administration would tackle the challenges of insecurity, corruption and economic decline.
“I will give my best in tackling these problems. Your obligation does not end in casting your votes. I seek your voice and input in tackling these problems,” he promised.
The President elect also emphasised that his administration would not tolerate corruption.
“We shall strongly battle another form of evil that is even worse than terrorism — the evil of corruption. Corruption attacks and seeks to destroy our national institutions and character. By misdirecting into selfish hands funds intended for the public purpose, corruption distorts the economy and worsens income inequality. It creates a class of unjustly-enriched people.
“Such an illegal yet powerful force soon comes to undermine democracy because its conspirators have amassed so much money that they believe they can buy government. We shall end this threat to our economic development and democratic survival. I repeat that
corruption will not be tolerated by this administration; and it shall no longer be allowed to stand as if it is a respected monument in this
nation,” General Buhari said.
