Democracy affirms the power of the people’s choice, even if the electoral process in our country is often marred by questions and concerns. To ameliorate the sufferings of Nigerians, the PDP must work on strengthening its policies more, engaging with citizens, and presenting a more compelling vision for a better Nigeria for we still in line to victory in the court.
The emergence of President Bola Tinubu as the winner of the 2023 presidential election under review by the judiciary presents an opportunity for Nigerians to look inward to curtail every actions as our civic duties to demonstrate the need to all to be part of the New Nigeria.
President Tinubu’s promise to non-partisan politics, concern for the poor, and early actions may indicate a positive trajectory for Nigeria’s progress and success if his administration is sincere to their promises and actions. As advocates for a new Nigeria, it is crucial to set aside party affiliations and support a leader who shows promise in achieving the aspirations we all share for our great nation.
