A pressure group, Concerned Nigerian Network, has called on Nigerians, irrespective of party affiliations, to support the administration of President Bola Tinubu to succeed.

The group’s President, James Erebuoye, spoke on Thursday in Abuja.

Mr Erebuoye also urged presidential candidates of the opposition parties to join hands with Tinubu to build the country since their interest was to serve Nigerians and make the country better.

“It is time for both Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party and Peter Obi of the Labour Party to embrace Tinubu as the duly elected president of Nigeria. Embrace and congratulate Tinubu as the President of Nigeria by joining hands to support the government to achieve a Nigeria of our dreams for all,” he said.

He added that though the country was passing through some challenges, Nigerians across the world should support the government irrespective of political, ethnic or religious sentiments.

“Let us come together as one people to join Tinubu in building a peaceful and better Nigeria for all, the government alone can’t do it.

“If we all join hands together in building the country by positively contributing our quota to its development, we will surely see light at the end of the tunnel.

“We must respect the judgment of the Supreme Court and move on as a united people with one future and one destiny. We are all winners. Nigeria has won, all the contestants including Atiku Abubakar and Peter Obi are advised to embrace and congratulate Tinubu as the country’s president,” he said.

He added that the CNND would organise an international conference within and outside the country to address critical issues in the country.

He said the conference would educate CNND members and the general public on the imperatives of building a one indivisible and prosperous Nigeria, irrespective of tribal, religious and political affiliation.
