”I Want To Leave Behind A Legacy Of Free, Fair Elections In Nigeria” – President Buhari

President Buhari today in Daura, declared that he would want to be
remembered as a leader who kept his word that elections in Nigeria must
be free, fair and credible.

Receiving Governor Aminu Bello Masari of Katsina State, who came to
formally inform him of his election victory in last Saturday’s
Governorship poll, the President commended Nigerians who heeded to his
pre-election appeals to cast their votes peacefully.

The President who described last Saturday’s Governorship and State
Assembly elections across the country as largely successful said:

‘‘I have maintained a position that elections must be free and fair
and people have the right to make their choices and vote their
consciences. I am happy they understood the message and did just that.

‘‘Power is a public trust that belongs to the people. Power is not by
strength or wisdom but by Providence. Elected persons must be fair and
just. This is the legacy I want to leave behind. A leader must be fair
and just. All leaders should strive to do that.’’

Governor Masari, who was accompanied by officials of the All
Progressives Congress (APC) party in Katsina State, thanked the
President and the party for the support which led to his decisive
victory on March 9.

The governor pledged to work for the good of the people of Katsina
State, in line with the vision of the Next Level government at the
centre.
