Tinubu’s Victory, Sign Of National Cohesion- Al Makura

The senator representing Nasarawa south, Umar Al Makura has described  the victory of Bola Tinubu during the presidential election as a sign of national cohesion.

Al-Makura, a former governor of Nasarawa, spoke in Abuja at a Ramadan lecture and special prayer for Nigeria organised by Asiwaju project beyond 2023.

The senator said all Nigerians should pray for Tinubu and Kashim Shettima, vice-president-elect, to succeed and fulfill their promises to Nigerians.

“I call on all Nigerians regardless of their faiths to support the Tinubu and Shetima government in prayers to successfully pilot the affairs of this nation and offer Nigerians the dividends of democracy promised to them during the campaign,” Al-Makura said.

“From the beginning of the campaign to the election period and now, peace has been restored to the nation and our hope has been renewed.

“The election itself was a new hope and indication of national cohesion and unity because the majority of the votes of Northerners went to Tinubu; this is a sign of togetherness.

“We thank God for the government of President Muhammadu Buhari and we should continue to pray for its successful transition programme to the incoming leadership.

“We should ask Almighty Allah (SWT) to guide and offer wisdom to Tinubu and Shetima to successfully direct the affairs of the nation.”
