    President Bola Tinubu has congratulated the winners of the by-elections held on Saturday, August 16, across 16 constituencies in 12 states.

    The All Progressives Congress, APC won 12 of the constituencies.

    Bayo Onanuga, the President’s Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, made the statement in a press release issued on Sunday afternoon.

    Onanuga announced the election results, stating that the APC won 12 constituencies, the All Progressives Grand Alliance won two, the Peoples Democratic Party won one, and the New Nigeria People’s Party won one.

    The statement mentioned that the president commends INEC “for the hitch-free elections, mostly devoid of violence,” and lauded the newly appointed APC National Chairman, Prof. Nentawe Yilwatda, for steering the party to its first major triumph under his leadership.

    Tinubu also congratulates the APC governors and other leaders on the successful by-elections.

    “Chairman Nentawe Yilwatda has shown leadership capacity and demonstrated what is achievable when popular candidates are fielded and with unity of purpose among party leaders,” the statement quoted the president.

    “To all APC faithful and the electorate, thank you for the confidence reposed in our party. Be assured that our Renewed Hope slogan is not a mere slogan. Our destination is a better, more secure and prosperous Nigeria. We shall take you there, by the Grace of God,” he said.

    “President Tinubu commends all the political parties and candidates who participated in the election and enjoins them to continue to be guided by the spirit of sportsmanship, fair contest and magnanimity, which are enablers of enduring democracy,” the statement concluded.
