Thank You For Bringing Your Deputy To See Me After Beating My Party, Buhari Tell by abeyaktech: 3:39pm On Sep 25, 2020 |
President Muhammadu Buhari has commended Governor Godwin Obaseki and his Deputy Philip Shaibu for paying him a courtesy visit at the Presidential Villa after beating the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the just-concluded Edo Election. Mr. Godwin Obaseki of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) defeated Mr. Osagie Ize-Iyamu, of the APC to win a second term as governor of Edo State. The President, while speaking to the governor and his delegation on Friday, said, “I thank you for bringing your deputy and supporters to come and see me after beating my party. I am supposed to preside over all Nigerian interests whether I like it or not, but my single desire is to make sure that innocent people don’t suffer. That message I got across to the Inspector General of Police, that elections must be free and fair. “If contestants have too much money and they decide to spray, so be it. But what I insist is, nobody should go and raise a counterforce to the government, arm heavily-drugged thugs to go and humiliate people. “I want Nigerians to appreciate that I respect them as Nigerians and that I am bound by the oath I have taken, that their security is in the hands of God and in the hands of the government, which I am leading.” President Buhari noted that as the leader of the governing party, and despite the fact that the party has lost some states in the elections, he wishes to leave behind a political culture based on integrity. “We have lost states across the country. Now I do not like to escape the responsibility, seeing as the leader of the country, I am also the leader of my party, that I am not leading the party very well. “I am trying to make sure that the party is built on a civilised basis, rule of law and respect for human rights and human beings, right from polling units to local governments, to states up to Abuja and that’s what I have been insisting as my contribution to the National Working Committee and executive of the party. I know we are a developing country, a developing economy, and trying to develop our political culture. I want the development of political culture to be based on integrity and accountability. Let people work very hard and earn what they are looking for through their hard work and through fair competition,” the President said. He added jocularly that he was congratulating the Edo governor “reluctantly” because he defeated the candidate of his party, the APC. In his remarks, Governor Obaseki thanked the President for ensuring that fair play reigned during the election which saw him victorious. “You would recall a couple of weeks before the election, I came to see you and you assured me that we were going to have a free, peaceful, and credible election. That is what we had during the election of 19th September and the whole world has acclaimed that the Edo election was perhaps one of the best conducted in recent times in Nigeria. This could not have been possible without your insistence that the right things be done, and for that, we want to say thank you very much.” He also thanked the President for his congratulatory message, assuring him that the message “has been internalised, that it is God that made this election possible, therefore I should be humble about the election and also magnanimous in victory.” He pledged his unalloyed loyalty and support and that of the people of Edo State to the President and the federal government. https://www.channelstv.com/2020/09/25/thank-you-for-bringing-your-deputy-to-see-me-after-beating-my-party-buhari-tells-obaseki/amp/?__twitter_impression=true 2 Likes |

Nobody has ever gone to thank his Majesty, the letter writer general of the federation for conducting peaceful election. He was always using his godogodo boys to dismantle the opposition. Today, his PDP Dundees see him like Saint Mathew. I AM DONE TALKING 3 Likes 1 Share |

Buhari is not a dynamic party leader. APC has lost a number of sates than it had in 2015. Even if Buhari was the PDP party leader, he would have lost more states & practically would have left PDP for dead. I bet he dosen't understand how President rallies round & mobilises party stalwarts to stabilize & gain control of more states. States across the federation work their socks off to ensure your victory, the least you can do is ensure maximum support than being laid back in Abuja. kiss the truth! 1 Like |
