President Buhari Optimistic of Tinubu’s Leadership

President Muhammadu Buhari has said under the administration of the President-elect, Bola Tinubu, Nigeria would experience effective governance.

The President stated this in a statement issued by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina on Tuesday.

According to him, Tinubu is equipped with the pedigree and experience to lead the country when he takes over power by May 29.

Parts of the statement reads: “As the President-elect prepares to take over the mantle of leadership at 71, the President affirms that his political pedigree from the ’90s, active role in party politics, being elected Senator and later Governor of Lagos State, and diligent involvement in structure of leadership at the Executive and Legislative levels for many years, will serve as an asset for good and effective governance.

“President Buhari believes Asiwaju’s warmth, friendliness and generosity has set the pace for a network of friends, home and abroad, that will shape his presidency with requisite expertise to guide the economy, and consolidate on the investments of past leaders, particularly in people-first development and infrastructure”.

Buhari joined members of the President-elect’s family, his wife, Senator Oluremi Tinubu, business partners and political associates in celebrating the President-elect who will clock 71 on Wednesday.

“President Buhari prays for the wellbeing of Asiwaju and his family,” the statement added.
