Lai Mohammed, APC spokesman calls Goodluck Jonathan a ‘hero’ for conceding ‘it will calm everything’ he says.
“President Jonathan called General Muhammadu Buhari, the winner of
the elections, to congratulate him,” Lai Mohammed, spokesman for the
APC, said.
“There had always been this fear that he might not want to concede,
but he will remain a hero for this move. The tension will go down
dramatically,
“Anyone who tries to foment trouble on the account that they have
lost the election will be doing so purely on his own,” he added.
Victory for Buhari marks the first time in Nigeria’s history that an
opposition party has democratically taken control of the country from
the ruling party.
A while ago, President Goodluck Jonathan called his major challenger
and the likely-winner of the 2015 presidential election, Muhammadu
Buhari of the All Progressives Congress, APC to congratulate him.
Nigeria’s Minister of Aviation, Osita Chidoka said the president
spoke with Muhammadu Buhari on the phone and will address the country
after rounding off his meeting with his cabinet.
President Jonathan also spoke with the National Leader of APC, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu.
