Ahmed Bola Tinubu, the candidate for the All Progressives Congress (APC), was elected president in a free, fair, and credible election, according to the Bayelsa State Coordinator of the Tinubu-Shettima Campaign Council (ICC).
No election in the history of the nation, according to the coordinator Preye Aganaba, has ever produced an unexpected result like the 2023 election, which gave rise to Tinubu.
According to a statement Aganaba provided to the Daily Post on Wednesday, he succeeded in electing Tinubu against all odds in his community in Odi, Kolokuma-Opokuma, the local government area of Senator Douye Diri, the incumbent governor of Bayelsa.
Aganaba said the people of his community, who followed the gospel of Tinubu preached by the ICC rejected the governor’s candidate, Atiku Abubakar and identified with Tinubu.
He said: “Apart from winning my polling unit with 60 votes against the PDP’s 45 votes in the presidential election, we defeated Atiku in Ward three, Odi as Tinubu polled 547 votes against Atiku’s 535 votes.
“The people believed in the gospel of Tinubu, and stood their ground against the array of PDP political leaders in my community. The Jagaban was a movement and our people joined the winning train”.
Aganaba congratulated Tinubu on his well-deserved victory describing it as the acceptance of the people’s will.
He said: “The 2023 elections is a true reflection of the people’s desire for a more prosperous Nigeria. Nigerians spoke with a strong voice and changed the face of politics forever.
“I thank the people of my community, Odi for coming out en masse and voting massively for Tinubu. What we witnessed is a free and fair election. I congratulate the incoming President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu on his victory.
“As Nigerians, we look forward to enhanced security, sustained democracy, social development and economic prosperity.”
