Nigeria’s incoming president, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, has compared the certificate of return he received from the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to a “World Cup” trophy.

Sunday, Tinubu spoke during a visit to the palace of Lagos’ oba, Rilwan Akinolu.

INEC named Tinubu, the candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), as the winner of the February 25 presidential election last week.

Addressing at the palace, Tinubu assured Nigerians he would not let them down.

“To all the monarchies seated, may God bless you with robust health. God will not permit our nation to die. We will not be employed as a means to shame you. I will not let you down,” he replied.

“The tour that we undertook and from which we have returned with a certificate is comparable to our own World Cup; I appreciate your efforts.”

The Oba of Lagos commended the president-elect as a unique individual “destined for the highest levels of leadership.”

Babajide Sanwo-Olu, governor of Lagos, Femi Pedro, former deputy governor of Lagos, Muiz Banire, former commissioner for environment, and Jumoka Okoya-Thomas, APC Lagos women leader, were present at the palace.

Others include Saheed Elegushi, the oba of the Kingdom of Ikate-Elegushi, and Omogbolahan Lawal, the oniru of Iruland.
