Tinubu tasks APC leaders on good governance

President Bola Tinubu called on the party’s leadership, particularly elected officials, to prioritise good governance and effectively address the needs of the poor in order to re-engineer the economic and political landscape of the nation.

He emphasised that winning the election was only the beginning of a longer progressive journey.

He underlined the necessity of responsive and accountable governance and pledged his administration’s commitment to ensuring that government programmes benefit and uplift the masses, working towards a larger, restructured economy that satisfies the yearnings of the poor.

Tinubu urged party members to promote unity, stability and camaraderie at all levels, starting from the grassroots, while also calling on them to focus on development and prosperity for the country.
He highlighted his administration’s intent to build international trade partnerships across sectors, aiming to benefit not just the national coffers, but the wallets and accounts of the Nigerian people.

Defending the legitimacy of the presidential election and echoing his previous stance, the president stated that those who do not accept the outcome of a free and fair election do not deserve the joy of victory.

“We have worked hard, and we have received the trophy. Winning an election is the first part of the process. What is next is good governance and quality service delivery. We must promote unity, peace, and love among all organs of the party.
You are the makers and drivers of the party. When we have all passengers inside the bus, the driver must not fall asleep. The brake must also work well. Party loyalty must exist.”

He emphasised the importance of good governance and quality service delivery as the next steps after an election victory.
