The Coalition of Civil Society Organizations for Tinubu/Shettima 2023 has urged the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, and his Labour Party counterpart, Peter Obi, to drop the case against President Bola Tinubu and join him in the proposed national unity and all-inclusive government.
Both Atiku and Obi are suing Tinubu of the APC for declaring him the victor of the February 25 presidential election.
Lilian Ogbole, the group’s National Coordinator, made the statement during a press conference on Thursday in Abuja, saying the demand became necessary because the Tinubu-led administration has demonstrated its willingness to work tirelessly to establish peace, development, and progress in Nigeria.

Ogbole noted that well-meaning Nigerians all over the world, as well as the international community at large, are applauding and giving the president standing ovations for his decisiveness in tackling and containing serious national issues, as well as the transformational reforms and socioeconomic policies and initiatives he has brought to the table in less than 30 days in office.
She emphasized that the President’s Renewed Hope Agenda is progressively bringing in expedited relief and reassurance of hope for not only Nigerians but the entire African continent.
Ogbole went on to say that as stakeholders in the Nigerian project, they felt it was necessary to urge on all selfless, well-meaning Nigerians and patriots across party lines to draw their swords and join this revolutionary government of ational unity and all-inclusiveness.
She stated: “We resolved to say unequivocally loud and clear, here and now that the victory in the last presidential election is a victory for all Nigerians regardless of their political affiliation and alignment, religion or tribe, it is indeed a victory for Africa, the entire black race and of course victory for the entire world and humanity at large; it was a no victor no vanquish election.

“President Bola Tinubu’s government has thus far proved beyond every reasonable doubt to be transformational in nature with huge potential to reunite, revitalize, renew and reposition Nigeria for a breakthrough to an uninterrupted era of progress and prosperity, hence the need for all hands to be on deck.
“Even though we are aware that it is the fundamental right of all aggrieved candidates to seek for redress in the court of law, in the national interest we wish to use this avenue to crave the indulgence of all aggrieved candidates who are seeking redress in the tribunal to withdraw their litigations against the president and join hands with him in the proposed national unity and all-inclusive government.”
The coalition stated that it was certain that the priority of all other political party candidates was to act selflessly in the national interest, and that since Tinubu was carrying out their intentions, they could and should go a step further to collaborate with him to achieve the same patriotic goal.
The alliance emphasized that this was the only way to demonstrate to the world that their fights were not personal and selfish, but rather in the national interest and quest to restore man’s dignity through the establishment and implementation of people-friendly policies and programs.
