President-elect, Bola Tinubu has instructed Nigerians to not pity him despite the huge task of nation-building before him.
Tinubu revealed this on Sunday night during his inauguration dinner and gala night.
The former Governor of Lagos maintained he was aware of the task before him and insisted he will not give any excuses.
Instead, he urged Nigerians to hold him accountable on his campaign promises.
“We have corruption, insecurity and many problems confronting us… but don’t pity me. I asked for the job. I campaigned for it. No excuses.
“I will live up to expectation, I promise you,” Tinubu said.
Tinubu, who contested on the platform of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), defeated Atiku Abubakar (PDP) and Peter Obi (LP) in the 2023 presidential election.
