A reconciliation committee has reportedly been formed by the president-elect Tinubu to meet with presidential aspirants from other political parties.
Recall that on March 1, 2023, the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) announced Tinubu as the winner of the 2023 presidential election.
As the president-elect and vice president-elect Kashim Shetima received their certificates of return in Abuja, Rotimi Akeredolu, the governor of Ondo state, said this.
He said:
“The president-elect has set up committees to meet with the gentlemen who contested in the election for us to start the healing process. I belong to one of the committees. We are going to meet them and appeal to them so that we can work together,”
“This is an election that was not padded. People who voted were counted, that is the way I see it, not one which shows millions of votes. You can see the candidates, everyone won 12 states each, it has never been like that before.”
Akeredolu insisted that Ondo state voters chose Tinubu because they desired a president from the south.
“Ondo people are progressives and we will always, at least, be on the side of progressivism. From the onset, we were at the forefront of clamour for a southern president and so we have to put everything we had into it and we got the support, that is why we are able to make it,” he said.
