” By tomorrow afternoon, my predecessor will be heading to Daura on the border with Niger but I have told him not to worry as he will still get a knock on his door.
“No matter how short a man is, he will see the sky. I will still be able to find him when I need his help,” he said.
On the resilient nature of Nigerians, the president-elect said that here was a country that had stumbled a number of times, but had never faltered.
“We can be squeaky like old mama’s car, but we will never break apart. We are just a unique country.
“We must fight corruption, poverty, inconsistencies in policies and many other problems confronting us, but don’t pity me, I asked for the job, I campaigned for it, no excuses, I will live up to the bill to deliver. I promise you,” he said.
