“I didn’t start this journey in a single day; I knew it’s not going to be easy. The inauguration will strengthen me.”
“I know how dampened you are that your effort did not come the way you wished. We are in a battle with an entrenched establishment.
"We are in a long battle. Even me, I know that the journey ahead is tough; they will make allegations, blackmail and all sorts of things, but I am ready."
Peter Obi thanks his supporters
While speaking, Obi extended heartfelt gratitude to his supporters and allies for standing by him in the journey to reclaim their stolen mandate.
Obi urged his supporters not to stop praying for the country and to remain focused and do the right thing.
He said:
“I thank you for your sacrifice and I ask that you do not feel dampened. Thanks for the sacrifice; thanks for being part of this greatness.
“Please as we go through this pain, let us stay together. Let us do the right thing. Nobody can claim to be a saint, I am not. I could have done something unknowingly in the past. I plead that you stay focused. This is about transformation which takes time.”
Meanwhile, all is set for the historic inauguration of Tinubu as world leaders have begun to troop into Abuja for the special event.
