While expressing good wishes for his new tenure, President Buhari also congratulated those who emerged as members of the Standing Committee, both the re-elected and the ones who won fresh seats.
Unanimous acceptance
The President commends the itch-free conduct of the elections and the unanimous acceptance of the outcome, saying this has set a good standard for other unions to emulate.
President Buhari calls on the newly-elected executives to join his administration in the efforts to rid the country of fake news and to avoid negativism, advising the media to abstain from content that is against the maintenance of law and order and the sustenance of National security.
