AKUFO-ADDO
CONGRATULATES PRESIDENT-ELECT, MUHAMMADU
BUHARI
I join well-wishers in the rest of Africa
and across the world to extend warm
congratulations to the APC presidential
candidate, General Muhammadu Buhari, on his
decisive victory in the March 28, 29
Nigerian presidential election, thus
becoming the next President of the Federal
Republic.
Through the peaceful exercise of their
sovereign and democratic right to elect
their own leaders, the people of Nigeria
have strengthened the frontiers of democracy
for all other African countries to emulate.
This is the first time, in Nigeria’s
history, that one democratically elected
government has been voted out for another,
and that a sitting President has been
rejected at the polls. This change, after 16
years of the Fourth Republic, should go a
long way to enhancing the quality of
competitive governance in Nigeria. It has
reinforced the democratic notion that the
people have the power to change governments.
President Goodluck Jonathan is to be
commended for graciously conceding defeat,
thereby laying to rest any lingering
suspicion and anxiety about the fate of
Nigeria in the aftermath of the elections.
By their exemplary conduct, both outgoing
President Jonathan and his successor have
reinforced the resilience of Nigeria's
democracy, and demonstrated to the entire
world that politics in Africa can be
positively competitive, when conducted on
the basis of time-honoured principles of
transparency, fairness and equal
opportunity.
I hope that the determination and
perseverance shown over the years by General
Buhari, evident in this victory, which is
his 4th attempt at the Presidency, will
result in him bringing his wealth of
experience, as a military ruler and
subsequently as an acknowledged democrat, to
the fore in delivering unity, security,
progress and prosperity to the Nigerian
people.
I also hope that the President-elect would
continue in the stead of past Nigerian
leaders and deepen further the friendship
that exists between Nigeria and Ghana, which
has been based on a shared agenda of
stability, security, development and
prosperity.
Warm congratulations once again to the
President-Elect, General Muhammadu Buhari,
and best wishes for his success as he
prepares to take up the huge
responsibilities and challenges of the high
office of President of the Federal Republic
of Nigeria.
