President Muhammadu Buhari expressed his optimism for Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s ability to lead the nation with morality, vision, and unwavering dedication. The outgoing president gave a speech at Saturday’s inaugural lecture in advance of his handover and the inauguration of President-elect Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu on May 29. He urged the government to create conditions where all Nigerians have an equal chance to succeed regardless of their origins, beliefs, or socioeconomic standing. The fundamental values of transparency and accountability, as well as the fight against corruption, were also emphasized by President Buhari.
He explained that he felt great satisfaction and gratitude as he stood before the people at the end of this historic inauguration speech. Today marks the beginning of a journey towards the intersection of enlightenment and social growth. They’ve done extensive research on the subject of democratization for growth and the lessons they can take into the next era. They have been aware of the strains on the country’s social situation that has been discussed throughout the lecture. They’ve had to deal with the truths of inequality, corruption’s tenacity, and the need to give all citizens a voice.
The country’s democracy has immense potential.
More importantly, they have discovered the immense potential of democracy for the country. People should take away from this lecture that democracy is more than just a form of government. This is not merely a trend; it’s a way of life. To achieve this goal, participation, openness, and a commitment to equity and justice are essential. They’ve realized that true democracy flourishes when every student’s opinion is heard, valued, and represented regardless of their socioeconomic status or family background. This lecture’s philosophy has been based on the idea that national progress depends on people working together and taking personal and collective responsibility.
They understand that nation-building is a shared responsibility that cuts across party lines, and they have pledged to leave no part of Nigeria behind in its pursuit of good governance and the benefits of democracy. They have gained more than just knowledge with a call to action from their time here. He said his Excellency Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s ability to fulfil the mandate given to him by Nigerians gives him renewed hope as he prepares to hand over control of governance to the president-elect on May 29.
Healthcare, education, and steady livelihood should be prioritized.
At the same time, citizens are being reminded of the tremendous potential within the great nation and the enormous responsibilities they have been given as leaders. The advice in this speech needs to be put into practice immediately. After eight years in office, President Buhari is stepping down on Monday. He has said that his successors must continue to put the needs of the people first by ensuring that they have access to healthcare, a good education, and a steady livelihood.
By upholding openness, responsibility, and the rule of law, they must combat corruption in all its forms. But most importantly, the country needs to keep their unity. Through open communication, mutual appreciation, and tolerance, diversity can be leveraged for positive effects. The country can rise above its divisions and find a way forward together. Everyone in Nigeria should work to create conditions in which people of all ages, races, and socioeconomic backgrounds can thrive. Moreso, he expressed his gratitude to the distinguished speakers, and especially to His Excellency Uhuru Kenyatta, the keynote speaker, for acknowledging his invitation to share his wisdom and insights.
Worth is determined by the impact on people’s lives, not just the position.
Lastly, he extends his warmest congratulations to the incoming president and promises his unconditional support. He has faith in his ability to lead the country with honour, foresight, and a fervent dedication to democratic principles and the betterment of all citizens. He said people should keep in mind that it is not one’s position or title that determines one’s worth but rather the difference one makes in the lives of their fellow citizens. Let the people of Nigeria move forward, armed with the knowledge they gained from this lecture, and work together to create a prosperous, inclusive, and democratic Nigeria.

Buhari attest to Tinubu’s leadership value – Favourable conditions beyond religion and socioeconomic status are needed. – Express your point of view.
It is true the president has leadership qualities, but we want to see how that translates to a better Nigeria. We just want a country that will work for us and make the people prosper.
Buhari attest to Tinubu’s leadership value. They are all the same with the own self interest. They can’t sacrifice anything for the people, they are only there to gain more
Seeing is believing, Buhari should not attest about Tinubu’s leadership value. Let watch and see, because his own administration was nothing to write home about
We hope our elect president can be able to lead us well and improve our country to a standard level it is the turn of new administration to rule we all pray for a better country
President Buhari’s attestation to Tinubu’s leadership value is a testament to the National Leader’s contribution to the development of Nigeria’s democratic system. Tinubu’s strategic thinking, political acumen, and leadership qualities have proven valuable not only to the APC but also to Nigeria’s political landscape.
Tinubu’s leadership as been a good one been a president now is a new big role the country is not in good form right now I hope he is able to do better it will benefit the whole country
Honestly, I have faith in Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu that he will perform beyond expectations but I am concern about his health. If Buhari knows the ability of Tinubu as a man who has great leadership quality. He will deliver let us give him the benefit of doubt.
To be candid Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu has the ability to rule Nigeria but for his health which is my concern. I believe he will fully recover from it. He is a man who will create a conducive enviroment for everyone, tackle insecurity that has been a major challenge and nightmare for most former presidents. He posesses the quality of a true leader and treat everyone regardless of religion, political party or socioeconomical divergence.
Now that a new administration has taken power, we can only hope that they will be able to steer the country in the right direction and bring it up to par.
