Kano State Governor, Abdullahi Ganduje, has felicitated with former Lagos State Governor, Bola Tinubu, on his victory at the All Progressives Congress presidential primary election on Wednesday.

Ganduje, in a congratulatory message he personally signed and made available to The Star, said the emergence of Tinubu as flag bearer of the APC in the 2023 general election would be a victory for Nigeria.

“Tinubu has the capacity to provide the needed leadership that would consolidate and continue to ensure the country’s democratic gains,” he said.

The governor applauded President Muhammadu Buhari for providing the enabling environment for credible primaries that produced the presidential candidate for the APC.

Ganduje further commended the National Working Committee, the delegates and all other organ and structures of the party across the country for their collective efforts in ensuring the success of the convention.

He appreciated other aspirants for their sportsmanship which they displayed from the time of expression of interest to the convention and particularly Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, who submitted themselves to transparent democratic exercise.

The governor, however, called on Tinubu as party leader to “bring his political and socio-economic experience to bear on party leadership and members to close ranks and work for its victory in the forthcoming election.”

Governor Ganduje also called on all party members to remain united and focused ahead of the 2023 general election.
