President Goodluck Jonathan on Sunday congratulated Mr Ayo Fayose of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP on his victory in Saturday's governorship election in Ekiti.
Jonathan's congratulatory message was contained in a statement issued on Sunday in Abuja by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Dr Reuben Abati.
The president also commended INEC, security agencies and the people of Ekiti over the peaceful conduct of the election.
Jonathan said the successful conduct of the exercise was in line with the administration’s commitment to ensuring that elections in all parts of the country were progressively freer, fairer and more credible.
The statement further said: " As Fayose readies himself to assume office in fulfillment of the clearly expressed wish of his people, President Jonathan urges him to be humble and magnanimous in victory. He also urges Fayose to commit himself to forming an administration that will work for the advancement of the interests of all Ekiti people irrespective of their political affiliations or loyalties.
"Jonathan calls on Fayose to regard his second chance to serve as governor of Ekiti State as a sacred mandate from God Almighty and his people."
The president enjoined the governor-elect to discharge his new mandate with immense dedication, wisdom and vigour. This, he said, was to enable him " achieve a much more rapid socio-economic development in Ekiti for the benefit of its people who resoundingly reaffirmed their trust in his leadership.’’
The president, according to the statement, assured Fayose that the Federal Government would give all necessary support and assistance to his incoming administration. The statement also said the Federal Government would cooperate in furtherance of the administration’s objective of significantly improving the living conditions of Nigerians in all parts of the country.
"He wishes Fayose continued good health and a very successful second tenure as governor of Ekiti," the statement added.
