We must set new standards for our nation – Dele Momodu

Member of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), Mr. Dele Momodu has said that Nigerians must set new standards for their nation.

He made the statement on microblogging platform, X, formerly known as Twitter on Thursday, September 7, following the Tribunal’s judgement that went in favour of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu on Wednesday.

“All the countries we all wish to run to were made better through the huge sacrifices and excruciating pains of some opposition leaders,” he posted on X.

The tweet added: “If it is about convenience, many of us would easily join any government in power but we must set new standards for our new nation and kick against electoral malpractices.”

“For me, it has nothing to do with who won or who lost but about the shambolic electoral process… It is my personal opinion and I stand by it. It would have been more convenient to defend my friend and Big Brother, but that’s not who I’m. It is a matter of principle…,” he concluded.

Recall that the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) declared the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate as the winner of the presidential election on March 1, 2023.
