I’ve prepared all my life to be president – Bola Tinubu

Bola Tinubu, the president-elect, has assured Nigerians that he has been preparing all his life for the important task of being the president of Nigeria, and he will not fail them.

The 71-year-old leader made this known on Wednesday, March 29th, in his birthday message to Nigerians, adding that he cannot afford to squander his mandate as the nation’s next president.

In his reflection titled “My 71st Birthday Message to Nigerians,” Tinubu reiterated that his campaign promises were not mere words, but a bond that binds him to the task of creating a better Nigeria for the benefit of every Nigerian.

Tinubu’s pledge has been welcomed by his supporters, who believe that he has the vision and leadership qualities required to take Nigeria to the next level.

The president-elect has been widely regarded as one of the most influential politicians in Nigeria and has a vast experience in public service.

His departure for a vacation in Paris, France, last week caused some concern among his supporters, who feared that he may have been facing health challenges.

However, his media aide, Tunde Rahman, dispelled the rumors and assured Nigerians that Tinubu was in good health and only taking a break before the hectic tasks of office begin.

He said; “Dear Nigerians, I thank all of you who have expressed your goodwill towards me on the occasion of my 71st birthday. I received your kind words with great pleasure and was profoundly touched by the depth of your care and support. Above all, I thank God Almighty for the life He has given me, for all the opportunities and doors He has opened to me along the way.

“This year, in particular, I see this day as one of deep reflection. The spiritual meaning and significance of the holy month of Ramadan matter to me much more than the celebration of any individual milestone. Yet, this is my first birthday as the President-elect. A few weeks back, Nigerians gave me the honour of a lifetime. In exactly two months, on the 29th of May my term in office will begin. It is a rare privilege indeed, and one that I do not take lightly and shall not squander.

“With such a privilege already granted to me, I will not go so far as to suggest I am due any birthday presents this year. I have already been given the greatest gift. A chance to lead and fulfil destiny. An opportunity to champion your aspirations and to bring about the Nigeria of your dreams.

“I will, instead, use this day as an opportunity to reiterate my commitment to the great and important task of rebuilding our nation and renewing the hope of the Nigerian people. I campaigned hard and made important promises. Those promises were not mere words; professed glibly or cynically to win support.

“They represent a bond that binds me to the task of creating a better Nigeria for the benefit of every Nigerian, whether you voted for me or not. I have prepared for this moment all my life, I will not fail. Henceforth, may growth, hope, peace and compassion stand proudly and ring loudly throughout the land. May we find the right way and the good courage to turn our beloved country into a strong, just and prosperous home for all. May Almighty God bless all Nigerians.”
