President Muhammadu Buhari has bared his mind on the major opposition parties in the country.

He said: “Our party blended confidence with caution, we worked hard and won. Now, their overconfidence is creating more problems for the opposition than anyone else.”

“The opposition parties were already telling their foreign backers that they would defeat the APC. Our party blended confidence with caution, we worked hard and won.”

“Now, their overconfidence is creating more problems for the opposition than anyone else. They are finding it hard to convince those who supported them from the outside why they are unable to beat us.”

“A combination of overconfidence, complacency and bad tactical moves made them lose, plain and clear. This has created more problems in their camp. Why did they fail to remove us?”

“An important reason I congratulate Asiwaju on winning is because the opposition got support and false hope from outside and went on to create the impression that they will win, that they will defeat us. How more wrong could anyone be?”

“Try and keep solving problems. Be courageous to discuss them openly among yourselves.”

“This is the best way to survive politically in Nigeria. You (governors) have a programme to meet regularly and to discuss issues and how to maintain the party nationwide.”

“These successes would not have happened without your support. History will remember you kindly. Around the world, the election is being celebrated because of the turbulence in the region and the developing world, all courtesy of your leadership.

“We won by sheer hard work, the same thing you have always encouraged us to do. We thank you immensely for everything.”
