The National chairman of the ruling APC, Dr. Abdullahi Ganduje, has called on Atiku and Obi to wait till 2031 to realise their presidential ambition.
Ganduje, in a statement issued On Thursday, by his Chief Press Secretary, Edwin Olofu, said the Supreme court judgement laid to rest all claims by the opposition political parties that the votes at the presidential poll were manipulated in favour of Tinubu.
The APC chairman urged Atiku and Obi to bury their hatchets and join hands with Tinubu to reposition the country.
He added that the Supreme Court verdict would now pave the way for Tinubu to concentrate on implementing the Renewed Hope mandate of the APC for the benefit of Nigerians.
Ganduje noted: “Nigeria belongs to all of us, it is our responsibility as patriots to pool our resources together to move the country forward. I congratulate both Atiku and Obi for their dogged fight in extending the frontiers of our democracy and law.
“This is democracy. Tinubu’s victory is another victory for democratic rule in the country. There is still room for both Obi and Atiku to actualize their presidential aspiration after the second term tenure of President Tinubu in 2031.”
Ganduje called on Nigerians irrespective of political leaning to rally round the President to ensure that he delivers more dividends of democracy and move the country on the path of sustainable progress.
Meanwhile, the Coalition for Good Governance and Change Initiative has called on Atiku Abubakar and Obi not to abandon Nigeria.
Its National Coordinator, Okpokwu Ogenyi, made the call on Thursday, in Abuja, at a unity rally in celebration of Tinubu’s electoral victory at the Supreme Court.
He said: “We specifically singled out the candidate of the PDP, Atiku and the candidate of the LP, Obi, not to abandon Nigeria.
“It is our opinion that they should stay back and contribute meaningfully to the project Nigeria. We believe that as citizens of Nigeria one must not become a president or vice president before he or she can make meaningful contributions to the development of our nation.”
Ogenyi noted that Atiku as a former Vice President and Obi as a former governor should not hesitate to give appropriate advice devoid of politics and self-aggrandizement.
