Kenyatta made the appeal during the presidential inauguration lecture in Abuja on Saturday, ahead of Tinubu’s swearing-in. He emphasized that since the elections are over, it is now Tinubu’s responsibility to unite all Nigerians regardless of their religion, tribe, political affiliation, or other affiliations.
“The contest is now over and the hard work of building a prosperous and unified Nigeria now begins”.
“Upon assuming the office of president, you would be wise to transcend from the tactical politics of an election and assume your role as Nigeria’s vision bearer”.
“This will demand a complete overhaul of the adversarial mindset that we as politicians are conditioned to embrace during the electoral process”.
“As president, you must learn very quickly to lead those who love you and those who don’t with equal passion and commitment because now, you are the father of all”, he said as a keynote speaker during the event.
Kenyatta’s message highlights the importance of national unity and the need for leaders to prioritize the interests of the country above any personal or political interests. It is a call to action for Tinubu to lead by example and work towards a more united and prosperous Nigeria.
