"TO SERVE THE PEOPLE” AN ADDRESS BY THE PRESIDENT-ELECT, ASIWAJU BOLA AHMED TINUBU DURING THE CERTIFICATE OF RETURN COLLECTION CEREMONY AT THE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE CENTRE, ABUJA ON WEDNESDAY MARCH 1, 2023



As I hold this certificate, this moment is one of celebration and gladness for us.

The road has been long. Yet, we walked it. The battle has been hard fought. Yet , we won it.

But more important, I realize that I am just a servant of a larger purpose. You see, this is more than a document confirming the positive outcome of an election.

This important document symbolizes our collective democratic attainment and even loftier aspirations. It represents the impending transfer of a most sacred duty and trust from one person to another.

At its most sublime, this certificate also symbolizes that each of you has the ability to achieve what others believe is impossible for you to achieve.

I stand before you the president elect. And yes, that is special. But, I am no different than anyone of you.

If I can do this. You can do better. You must do better.

Our destiny as a people and nation depends on our ability to shed the artificial restrictions of bias and prejudice so that we live fully unto our democratic creed that no one is innately superior or entitled to greater rights and opportunities than any other Nigerian.

Very soon, this nation shall witness a young person standing before you holding this great symbol of democracy and national leadership. We shall see a woman standing before you, holding this certificate as its owner. We shall experience someone from a tribe that many people have tried to dismiss as unqualified for this high office.

By dint of hard work, determination and unyielding belief in a noble endeavor, you can achieve the best of things.

There are young people listening to me right now who shall one day be the leaders of our precious and exceptional democratic republic.

Thus, by taking this certificate, I assume a sacred duty I shall never ignore.

To you the people, especially the youths, I will work day and night. I will work to the utmost of my ability to make Nigeria better.

For this to be a victory at all, it cannot simply be a victory for one man or even one party. It must become a victory for all Nigerians who are committed to a greater society.

I know many did not vote for me. And you are disappointed that your candidate is not where I now stand.

I understand your hurt. To you, I extend the embrace and comfort of one family member to another.

This great project called Nigeria beckons to us all. It is bigger and more important than any partisan divide.

To my supporters, I ask you to continue to have faith in the mission that we have articulated.

To those who didn’t support me, I ask that you not allow the disappointment of this moment to keep you from realizing the historic national progress we can make by joining hands and hearts in common endeavor to pull this nation through.

In a phrase, I am asking you to work with me. As your president, I need you. More important, Nigeria needs you.

My heart and my door are open to you.

I ask you to come in so that we may begin the task of rebuilding our national home together, day by day, brick by brick.

Where there is poverty. Let us create prosperity and jobs.
Where there is hunger. Let us feed the people, chasing hunger from their midst.

Where there is now scarcity, let us rediscover abundance.

Where there is brutality, may we replace it with brotherhood.

Where violence stalks the land, may we establish peace.

Where others have erected temples to hatred and bias, may we construct permanent monuments to compassion and abiding affection.

History will record this day as the moment when I officially stood before you as president elect.

However, I would like to dedicate this day and record it as the moment that we vowed to come together to make Nigeria stand and shine forth at the beloved and brave republic God intended it to be.

e go pain igbos die

Sincerely as Asiwaju and my wonderful Sen. Gov Kassim Shettima take the mantle of leadership, there's an urgent need to fix a cancer that is growing on social Media.
I'm terrified,aghast, perplexed,horrified at the amount of Igbo propaganda on Social media.
It's vexing,toxic,barbaric, nauseating and sickening what these clowns are putting on social media.
They can burn down NIGERIA for likes and followers.
I monitored the election with a friend over the weekend and sincerely these lunatics live in another world.
My fellow Nigerians you are living in a totally different planet if you don't move close to these deluded people.
I will use Tik-Tok as an example,I'm not on Tik-Tok so I really don't know what they do on that app,but my deluded obedient friend is always watching videos on that app,so I was forced to watch with her,I nearly ran mad and broke her phone.
It was 30 seconds of constant madness,I mean there's a crazy mind boggling money making disinformation pipeline built around Obi.
The more disinformation they push down the throat of these deluded obi followers,the more likes and comments they get.
Even my friend was always commenting on these crazy videos.
It was so crazy,we had to watch till around 4am in the midnight,and every video was more sickening than the previous one.
Last last she ended up crying when I told her Obi had lost the election on Monday morning.
These social media Terrorist have really brain washed Obi followers,they are worse than Boko Haram,that's why it's better to ignore them,they live in an alternate country.
My most sickening observation was the Igbo celebrities,those ones are the sickest of the bunch,they remind me of Tucker Carlson of Fox news,just spilling lies to get more likes and followers.
Shame on them.
Pls NCC must quickly employ a content regulator for all the social media apps in Nigeria,force them to regulate the content they push on NIGERIANS using their apps.
If possible, constantly have an outsider monitor the algorithm responsible for pushing out contents to the top of the pile,if not done urgently,these deluded fellows will keep multiplying like zombies.
Only God can help those deluded Obi supporters
God bless Nigeria.

e go pain igbos die
tinubu go rule over igboland for complete 8yrs
