In order to speed up the process of nation-building, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has been instructed by the Social Democratic Party (SDP) to seek out the blueprints of Alhaji Atiku Abubakar and Mr. Peter Obi.
Following the Supreme Court’s ruling on Thursday, Mr. Femi Olaniyi, the South-West Zonal Secretary of the SDP, provided the counsel in a Friday interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Lagos.
Olaniyi pointed out that in order for Tinubu to give the people of Nigeria hope, he needed ideas from his rivals.
He congratulated Tinubu and stated that everyone’s aspirations of a Nigeria would come true with the right guidance.

“There is no time for excuses at all. Tinubu should start welcoming more ideas, in fact, from all serious contestants for the number one seat in the country.
“The President should seek advice and ideas from Atiku Abubakar of PDP and Mr Peter Obi of LP, since they both wanted to rule because of the suffering masses and to reshape the country,” he said.
Olaniyi, however, urged Atiku and Obi, in the nation’s interest, to be ready to lend Tinubu ideas that would make Nigeria compete well in the comity of nations.
“We should forget politics now as true leaders and citizens. Election has come and gone and the apex court has given its verdict.
”All the presidential aspirants should work together and be part of this government for the sake of the future of this country.
“It is not compulsory for them to be directly part of Tinubu’s government but with ideas and advice, a new story can be written of Nigeria soon,” he said.
Additionally, he exhorted all parties involved to view the Nigerian effort as a shared responsibility rather than just President Tinubu’s.
He claims that all matters pertaining to governance and policy-making have been settled by the ruling of the supreme court.
“Now that Tinubu has his mandate secured fully, he should run and make economy bounce back and reduce inflation.
“There is much relief for him (Tinubu) to squarely focus on governance and nation-building. This is now the time for the president to buckle up,” he said.
