President-elect, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu on Sunday eulogised the maturing and uninterrupted democratic journey of Nigeria since 1999, tagging the country as a unique one that’s gone through many storms and remains strong.
Tinubu said this while addressing African heads of state, members of the diplomatic corps and other participants in a gala night to mark the 2023 presidential inauguration at the Banquet Hall of the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
He said: “What lessons has Nigeria’s democracy taught the rest of Africa, if not part of the world, is resilience, determination, courage and love in diversity despite our tongues and tribes being different.
“Here is a country that has stumbled many times, but we never fall apart, and we will never break apart. We are just a unique country. We must fight corruption, poverty, inconsistencies in policy and many other problems confronting us.”
He also assured Nigerians of his determination to deliver on his campaign promises.
