Mr Dele Alake, Presidential Adviser, Special Duties, Communications and Strategy, revealed this in a statement on Friday in Abuja.

President Bola Tinubu has commended the decision of Senegal President Macky Sall not to seek a third term in office after the end of his tenure.

There had been protests in Senegal in the past few weeks followingspeculations over Sall’s third-term ambition after his second term in office in 2024.

Senegal is a country considered the most stable democracy in Africa.

To quell the crisis, Sall on Monday said he would not offer himself as a candidate for the Feb. 25, 2024, presidential election in his country.

Tinubu said the decision by Sall was in the best interest of his country and the peace and stability of the West African region.

He described Senegal’s president’s decision to abide by the constitutional of office and not offer himself for a third term as heart-warming.

“It has brought great joy and relief. As a Democrat, I must commend my brother for his statesmanship.

“With this singular decision, President Sall chose the stability, security and economic well-being of his people over and above narrow personal interest.

“The impact of this important decision will be felt beyond the shores and borders of Senegal and across our West African sub-region.

Tinubu said Sall has demonstrated that leadership is about serving the people honourably and quitting the stage when the constitutionally-stipulated time is up.

“By his example, democracy and respect for people power will take
stronger roots in Africa and will continue to flourish.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that Sall, 61, came to power in 2012 and was re-elected in 2019.

The Senegalese constitution was amended in 2016 but still provides for a maximum of two .

But his ers argued that his first term, which came before the constitutional amendment, does not count, something the opposition contested.

“My decision is not to be a candidate in the presidential election even though the constitution gives me the right to do so,” Sall said.

As for you sir, we all know your primary motivation is to achieve your lifelong ambition of being a president. Secondly, to build a family empire. You dangerously mirrors Buhari of pre 2015.

He should be mercilessly flogged for causing an unnecessary turmoil.

Nice one my presido.

I wish you would do 3 .
We will not forget how you hit the ground running, and turned Nigeria into paradise barely 3 months in office, with your strategic photo op sessions, paradigm-changing appointments, and era-defining economic policies.

This is what we the masses elected you to do.
We the good fifu of Nijireya stand solidly on your mandate, manhood, erectile appendage.

We stand by EU report.

Damnnn niggar

Same way Nigerians for also commend and laud tinubu if he nor force himself on Nigerians

Imagine failure like buhari going for third 3rd

that will be a multi-demensional tragedy

K

Africans nd power

The baron of our time,
The good father himself of Escobar

Wisdom and humility

Worth emulating

Niceone

Democrat

southsouthking:
We stand by EU report.

They are now the tribunal abi?

Mumu man

But can I as you Oga tinubu, if third term was an option in Nigerian constitution won’t you take it ?

In my opinion, this shouldn't be a laudable applause.



After 8 years of ruling, it is only common sense for you to allow others to do their own best too.




Tinubu is still my man though.


He understands Public/Inter-country Rapport.


He is the Best Politician Ever Liveth.

lol

He should be disciplined for attempting it in the first place. The crisis caused by that is still being felt in Sénégal

A Tinubu that came into office with all manner of moral baggages and via an electioneering process that was grossly flawed is praising another person who did the right thing in government.

Real recognizes Real

Wailers can come over...Obi-diot over to u

Come gnash your teeth like your father Achebe

That's said in the voice of a Democrat. Tinubu fought alongside others like Anthony Enahoro, MKO Abiola, Beko Ransome-Kuti, Ndubuisi Kanu, Adekunle Ajasin, Gani Fawehinmi, Ebitu Ukiwe (who morally deflated Babangida's ego), Alao Aka-Basorun, Kudirat Abiola, Bagauda Kaltho, Femi Falana, and a host of others. It's recorded in the Annals of Activism in Nigeria that Tinubu single-handedly founded Radio Kudirat and made Kayode Fayemi its Director! He spent his personal funds to build the so-called NADECO Route and resettle Nigerians running away from military oppression overseas. That's the person Nigeria now has as president! Happy days are here again, I tell you.

Honour in dishonor. Why will he even nurse an idea that runs contrary to the constitution of the country in the first place. If there is anything he's yet to do, why can't he just focus on those things from now on till 2024, instead of trying to extend his tenure through backyard arrangement. Two term of six or eight years should be enough to effect a positive change on his people, and if that is not enough; then no time will be enough.

He should kukuma die there
Na im family inheritance
Mtchww
