Enugu: Chief Hycienth Ngwu, former South-East Publicity Secretary of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), has urged opposition parties and critics to stop distracting President Bola Tinubu henceforth and allow him work for Nigerians.
Ngwu said this shortly on Thursday after the Supreme Court of Nigeria reaffirmed the earlier judgement of the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal (PEPT) reaffirming Tinubu winner of the Feb. 18, 2023, Presidential Election as declared by INEC.
He said that he had earlier said after the PEPT judgement that reaffirmed Tinubu victory that the judgement remained “a reflection of the wishes of the majority of Nigerians and that Tinubu won fair and square.
According to him, the Supreme judgment today, truly reaffirms my earlier position during the PEPT judgment that is a reflection of the wishes of the majority of Nigerians.
“The Supreme Court has finally nailed it; upholding the votes cast for President Tinubu by the people as the voice of God.
“Having come this far, I want to thank the critics and presidential candidates that went this far and by now they should be satisfied and their followers be satisfied also as all the necessary steps have been taken to reverse any abnormality witnessed in the election.
“It was a near-perfect Presidential election that was won very clearly by the ruling APC candidate and our President,” he said.
The APC chieftain called on the opposition parties and persons to set aside all distractions and bury all animosity and face governance in the interest of Nigerians.
“Governance is for Nigerians. We are all Nigerians and let us all support the President and his team to deliver sound macro-economic policies that will certainly leverage us out of the economic mess that we are witnessing in the country.
“I believe that President Tinubu has a sound economic team and their policies are very sound; but because of these distractions of going to tribunal the people are yet to come to reality with these sound policies and programmes.
“However with this judgment they will all come to terms with reality.
“Let all these bickering and opposition activities take a rest. Let’s put a stop to it and allow the very good and sound economic policies and programmes the economic team has put in place to strive,” he advised.
Ngwu, who is a foundation member of the APC, noted that Nigerians needed to benefit from these policies and programmes and then be happy.
He said that the ultimate focus of good governance remained the economic wellbeing and benefit of the people of Nigerians.
He urged Nigerians to close ranks and work together for the peace and prosperity of the country irrespective of political party and ideology, adding: “This is good for us, our children, the future of the country and to our neighbouring countries”.
“The political and economic stability, peace and progress of the country would not only impact on Nigerians but to residents of other African countries as they all look up to Nigeria and whatever happens here affects them directly or indirectly.
“We should allow President Tinubu’s administration to marshal out his good intentions and plans for Nigerians, which is encapsulated in his Renewed Hope Agenda.
President Tinubu has the capacity to deliver; he is an experienced politician and of a sound mind too. He will certainly give us the best if we work with him,” he said. (Flowerbudnews)
