After publicly campaigning and supporting PDP's President Goodluck Jonathan, the National Coordinator of the Oodua People’s Congress, OPC, says Muhammadu Buhari has proved that he is the choice of the people.
He made this known in a statement made available to newsmen in Lagos commending Buhari's resilience while congratulating him on his victory in the presidential election.
Gani Adams however said the President-elect should see himself as the president of all Nigerians and not just that of the APC.
See his full statement below:
It is time for all Nigerians, irrespective of political affiliation, to come together to continue to build our nation in a positive way, which of course, should be the focus of the president-elect himself and every other political leader across the various political parties in the country.
And for all of us, it is a new dawn in the annals of the country for an opposition party to win in a popular election, and I wish congratulate President Goodluck Jonathan for creating a level playing ground for all the parties that contested the election and the high spirit of sportsmanship he displayed when he called to congratulate the president-elect even before all the results were released.
By his action, President Jonathan has truly lived up to his statement that his ambition is not worth the life of any Nigerian. This is an exemplary feat, which any other presidents coming after him must not fall short of achieving.
And to all Nigerians, who by their participation in the election also deserve kudos as they defied the weather, distance and other hurdles to cast their votes. Their actions have revealed that democracy in the country has come to stay.
I urge them not to rest on their oars as their consistency in holding leaders accountable to their promises will go a long way in bringing out the best from the public office holders.
