PRESIDENT Bola Ahmed Tinubu has congratulated President-elect, Mr. Bassirou Diomaye Faye of the Republic of Senegal, saying that he comes with great promise and a sterling record.
While wishing Faye success as he takes on the important job of leading the good people of Senegal, President Tinubu also congratulated President Macky Sall, on overseeing an election that has been widely adjudged as peaceful and transparent.
Tinubu noted that the success of the presidential election in Senegal and the successful conduct of the general election in Liberia, a few months ago, had affirmed his long-held conviction that the taproot of democracy was deeply established in West Africa and would only grow stronger as it was watered by good governance, justice, and fairness to all.
As the Chairman of ECOWAS, President Tinubu affirmed that the successful conduct of the Senegal election was a boost to the sub-regional organization in its efforts to promote peace and constitutional order, as well as strengthen ties among member states.
Tinubu particularly congratulated the people of Senegal and assured them of Nigeria’s best wishes and support.
