Mr. Ade Omole, Director of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential Campaign Council (PCC) in the Diaspora, assured the party’s members that Bola Tinubu will win in the Presidential Election Tribunal.
He gave the assurance at a dinner organized by the directorate to appreciate its members and to thank God for the party’s victory at the Feb. 25 presidential election.
The Peoples Democratic Party and the Labour Party are currently in court challenging the outcome of the election, alleging that it was characterized by electoral malpractice.
This was after the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) declared Sen. Bola Tinubu, the APC candidate at the election as President-elect.
“No matter what people say, no matter what the opposition is saying, I know we have won the election on the ground, if they like let them go to court because it is their right to do so.
“We will meet them in court and we will win again in court, we won on social media and we will win in court.
“We can match them any day, anytime, Nigerians voted for our candidate, now President-elect, Sen. Bola Tinubu, and he will lead this country as ordained.
“It has happened and we are going forward; we are not moving backwards,” Omole said, adding that Tinubu was a man of action.
This, he said, was why he called his manifesto action plan because he was prepared to take action while other candidates were talking about the manifesto.
He explained that Tinubu already had plans to take action from the beginning and would hit the ground running in the right direction once he was sworn in as the country’s next president on May 29.
“He will ensure the success of the country in all ramifications once he is sworn in, and we all will be running with him in the right direction to make Nigeria great and better for all,” Omole said.
He also assured that Tinubu would reward all loyal and dedicated party members, adding had he was a man of character and experience and was competent enough to lead the country as president.
Omole said Tinubu had shown that he was capable to rule the country from his antecedents as a former two-term governor of Lagos State as his achievements were there for all to see.
He added that members of the directorate had worked very hard in the last couple of months to achieve the party’s electoral victory at the polls, saying that its leaders also led well.
He explained that though there were lots of progressives out there, the dinner was to celebrate with those in Abuja while thanking them.
“Again, there is this allegation about the APC not rewarding and appreciating loyal and dedicated members, I want to assure you that we are changing that narrative from this directorate.
“That is why we are giving a few of us that worked beyond the call of duty to do more a letter of appreciation in public in collaboration with the APC PCC,” Omole said.
