Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>President Muhammadu Buhari has told Nigerians to explore legal options in ventilating their grievances over the outcome of the 2023 general elections.<\/p>\n

He dropped this advice in his Easter message to Nigerians.<\/p>\n

A statement personally signed by Buhari on Friday said this year\u2019s Easter is about renewed hope and a glorious future for Nigeria.<\/p>\n

According to him, Easter is the triumph of light over darkness.<\/p>\n

Buhari said, \u201cI join Christians in Nigeria and around the world to celebrate Easter, which commemorates the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, signposting his victory over death.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt the heart of Easter is the triumph of light over darkness.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is a season that reminds us that the Almighty can turn an unpleasant situation round for good.<\/p>\n

\u201cRecognising that Easter is about renewed hope and a glorious future, I urge all Nigerians to continue to be confident and believe strongly in our country for better seasons ahead.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs a nation, we have gone through an election that has produced the next set of leaders at the federal and State levels.<\/p>\n

\u201cI commend Nigerians for believing in the process. While I congratulate those that have been elected, I acknowledge that it is the right of those who feel dissatisfied with the outcome to seek redress. I expect them to wait patiently and allow our legal system to run its course.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt has been a rare privilege for me to serve as your President since you gave me the first mandate in 2015 and renewed it in 2019.<\/p>\n

\u201cDay after day, I have been guided by the vows I took to keep Nigeria united, prosperous and secure.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur successes on security, economy, infrastructure, new oil frontier basins, landmark legal reforms as well as food sufficiency, among others, were possible because of the support of Nigerians.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs we celebrate this season with our families, neighbours and communities, let us do so in love, compassion, kindness, resilience and forgiveness.<\/p>\n

\u201cHappy Easter!\u201d<\/p>\n
