He further urged his fans and supporters to forgive him and join hands in promoting peace and harmony in the country, regardless of their political affiliations or beliefs.

In his words, “My fellow Nigerians, I am happy you’re as passionate as you are about your preferred candidates. That is the way politics should be. However, bitterness and hatred towards one another shouldn’t have a place between us. You might not see things the way I see them. That doesn’t mean you are wrong, and I am right. It just means that we are different. If your candidates have won, I would have prayed and worked for his success and mine.

I apologise to those offended by my support, and I seriously condemn all the violence across the country. I have mixed feelings, not for my candidate’s winning, but for your genuine anger. However, I pray Nigeria and Nigerians’ lives get better.”
