Aisha Buhari, the President’s wife, has stated that the president-elect, Bola Tinubu, will not betray the faith and confidence that Nigerians have placed in him.
On Thursday, she received the spouses of the president-elect and vice-president, Oluremi Tinubu and Nana Shettima, at the State House in Abuja.
The win of the All Progressives Congress (APC) flagbearer in last Saturday’s election, according to the First Lady, was a victory for all Nigerians.
According to a statement issued by her media office, Mrs. Buhari urged Nigerians to set aside their differences and accept Tinubu’s victory as God’s will.
She said: “Regardless of our interests and diversity, we should all accept it as a will of Almighty God, we wouldn’t have done it without his grace.
“It is a victory for all Nigerians. I am optimistic that the president-elect will not betray the trust and confidence that Nigerians reposed in him. It is now time to move on and focus on the path of renewed hope for Nigerian women and youths.
“So, my sister we count on your experience and interest in promoting the cause of women, youths, and girl-child education.”
Aisha emphasized the sacrifices made by many women during the campaign and election periods, particularly by the APC Women’s Presidential Campaign Team.
