The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has congratulated Mr. Donald J. Trump on his emergence as President-Elect of the United States of America after his historic victory at the US Presidential Elections.
A statement signed by its National Publicity Secretary, Prince Dayo Adeyeye said that Mr. Trump’s victory came against many odds and shows the strength of democracy in the US.
“We commend Secretary Hillary Clinton on her hard-fought campaigns. She showed herself as a role model for young men, women and children all over the world.
“The campaigns that preceded these elections has been hard fought and sometimes fractious in a manner that has taken its toll on the American people. We urge President-Elect Trump to move quickly and heal the divides and to reassure all Americans, particularly its minorities, that his administration will pursue policies and programmes that protects and promotes all their constitutional rights and freedoms.
PDP also urged President-Elect Trump to quickly formulate policies that will ensure a mutually beneficial relationship between the US and Africa in general, and Nigeria in particular. At this time, the US and Nigeria must work harder to deepen mutual security and economic interests.
