The Nigeria president-elect, Bola Ahmed Tinubu has congratulated Ahmed Fintiri and Dr. Nasiru Idris Kaura Gwandu who emerged winners of Adamawa and Kebbi States supplementary elections held on Saturday, April 15.

The former governor of Lagos State in a statement he personally signed on Wednesday felicitated those elected into the 10th Assembly at both State and National levels in the last supplementary elections in some states.

Tinubu further stated that the winners have earned the mandate “of their people and I call on them to rededicate themselves to the service of their respective constituents.”

According to him, “The supplementary polls have now brought the 2023 elections to a final, fitting conclusion. I observed, with satisfaction, the largely peaceful atmosphere that pervaded the supplementary election on Saturday. It was a further testimony that our citizens have accepted democratic norms and have unalloyed faith in the electoral process.

“However, I note the matter of Adamawa Supplementary Governorship Election and I urge police authorities to fully investigate all that transpired in the election given the attendant controversy. In every democratic contest there has to be one winner. I call on those aggrieved to pursue legitimate means of addressing their grievances.

“With the conclusion of the 2023 elections, I now welcome all of us who have been elected to brace up to serve our people with diligence and dedication and to join hands with me as your President-elect in the pursuit of our agenda to renew the hopes of our people in a better, stronger, more secure, economically vibrant and prosperous Nigeria.”
