President Bola Tinubu has congratulated governors elected on the platform of the All Progressives Congress, urging them to work for the good of all Nigerians.

He implored them to implement policies that prioritise all Nigerians and to always consider national interest above political affiliations.

Tinubu made this known in a statement signed by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Ajuri Ngelale, and shared on his page on Friday.

He noted that the entire financial system of the country would be re-engineered for inclusivity, effectiveness, and efficiency.

He also asked the governors to come up with a framework that would make the implementation of the school-feeding programme more comprehensive and successful across all states of the federation, taking into consideration the peculiarities of each locality, but working towards having all children in school.

The President, who received members of the Progressive Governors Forum at the State House in Abuja, on Friday, said government policies would only find full relevance in people’s lives when there is inclusivity, ownership, and sustainability.

“You can convert people. You can appeal to people to come to your side,’’ he said.
