Nigerians will be more united under Tinubu – Bello

The Nigerian ambassador to Mexico, Amb. Adejare Bello, has assured all interested parties that under Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s leadership, Nigerians will be more united than ever.

On May 29, 2023, Tinubu would take office as the 16th president of Nigeria.

Bello claimed that his conviction was supported by the antecedents of the president-elect, which many Nigerians both at home and abroad attested to.
He characterized Tinubu as a leader who could unite the country’s various regions, build on current welding efforts, and instill hope, patriotism, and a sense of unity among its constituents.
Bello confirmed that over the years, various adminis­trations in the country had struggled with the challenge of harmonizing disparate interests and managing dissensions, but assured that the president-elect had the will and the managerial amplitude to respond to the challenges.

According to Bello, Tinu­bu would make sure that appointments were not lop­sided, which would endear his administration into the warm embrace of all Nige­rians.

He described Tinubu as one Nigerian who knew the country well and someone abreast with its cultural and historical developments, adding that he is surround­ed by brilliant Nigerians with sound minds.
“None of you can fault in terms of intellect and understanding of the del­icate issues in the country in different aspects of the economy. This gives him an advantage not to play poli­tics of ‘me and my people,” he added.
He stated that the All Progressives Congress (APC) now needed to show that the politics of uniting the country required unconventional approaches in light of the divisive campaigns sponsored by opposition parties, especially around the Muslim-Muslim ticket of Tinubu and Shettima.

Bello stated that it would not be difficult to win over everyone because Tinubu was not a religious bigot, regardless of religion or place of origin.

“With Tinubu in the saddle, Nigerians will have an organic relationship built on the pillars of friendship, empathy, and unity devoid of political resentment.

Given the enthusiastic reception his campaign train received across the nation, he said, “It is, therefore, a little surprising that he is so widely accepted by the people on the other side of the Niger.”
