In a statement on his verified social media accounts, Peller welcomed the development and highlighted Nigeria’s African economic and political leadership.
He said Tinubu’s election as ECOWAS chairman is a testament to Nigeria’s founding fathers’ goal of a Nigeria for Africa, not only Nigerians.
“President Tinubu’s rise presents a beam of renewed hope for the African continent,” Peller remarked. Nigeria and Africa will change under his leadership. It confirms our economic and political leadership in Africa and honors our founding fathers’ ambition.
“As I have always stated that 2023 will be a turning point for Nigeria, I’m extremely convinced that Tinubu’s administration will bring about tremendous changes not only in Nigeria but Africa as a whole. “I pray that God strengthens him in all respects to deliver beyond expectations,” he continued.
