He advised Nigerians to use the opportunity it presents for realising a truly democratic government that approximates the yearnings and aspirations of the people for a leader that will lead them to the promised land of security and life more abundant.
A government with a human face that represents the aspirations and symbolism of June 12, a government that also got a pan-Nigerian mandate that once again defied the divisions in our country.
He said Nigerians needs a democratic leader that represents hope for change and national rebirth, a leader thay will lead us to the Promised Land.

He stated that one of its safety catches remained the opportunity to correct any mistake through the ballots, adding that now the time has come that Nigerians should work to make democracy meaningful and impactful by electing good leaders.
"Leaders that will make Every policy every decision they will take is to further the peoples’ interest and lift them from the morass of hopelessness, helplessness, dejection, poverty and ignorance into the cape of peace, security, prosperity and abundant life."
