The secretary of the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Board of
Trustees, Senator Walid Jibrin, has felicitated with the
President-elect, retired General Muhammadu Buhari, over his victory at
the March 28 poll.
Jibrin, in a chat with LEADERSHIP yesterday, said the PDP has always believes and preaches that power comes only from God, who gives it to whoever He wishes.
“During our campaigns, we always preached that power belongs to God He gives it to whom he likes and takes it away from whom He wills and give whom He wills. Now that God gave power to Buhari we must all accept the will of God,” he said.
He added that President Goodluck Jonathan’s immediate acceptance of defeat and phone call to Buhari even before the votes were counted proved his statesmanship belief in democracy and the total will of God.
“While personally congratulating Buhari, I call on all Nigerians to be law abiding and shun all forms of violence in the cause of the celebration.
“May I also call on all our PDP members to remain calm in our struggle to win all other positions in the remaining elections. We must never loose hope.
“I urge all Nigerians to shun religious, ethnic, and sectional politics as Nigeria must remain one entity and shall never be allowed to break. To keep Nigeria one is a task that must be done,” Jibrin said.
