According to Tinubu: “It’s on the strength of your character that I stand to fulfil the promise I made during the campaign. I’m happy we have been able to establish a relationship but I will leave Sanwo-Olu to give you back your banter and response. I’m the President-elect, your president.
“It’s a great honour and moment for me, I see all the preparations, the declaration of public holidays, the banner on poles, the signs all over and I’m a very happy man.”
