Nigeria’s President-elect, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, has likened the Certificate of Return given to him by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to a ‘ World Cup’ trophy.
The former Lagos Governor, made the remark when he paid a courtesy visit to the palace of the Oba of Lagos, Rilwan Akinolu on Sunday in Lagos.
Tinubu, who contested on the platform of the All Progressives Congress, APC, was announced winner of the February 25 presidential election.
Speaking at the palace, Tinubu said: “The journey that we embarked upon, we have returned home with a certificate.
“It is like our own World Cup and I thank you all for the effort.”
