Nigeria’s President-elect, Bola Tinubu, has compared the Certificate of Return delivered to him by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to a “World Cup” trophy.
On Sunday, he made the comment when visiting the palace of Lagos’ Oba, Rilwan Akinolu.
Tinubu, who ran on the platform of the All Progressives Congress, APC, was declared the victor 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.”
