In a statement on Wednesday, signed by the Chief Press Secretary to the Governor of Niger State, Mary Berje-Noel, Bello observed the 2023 Presidential and National Assembly elections as keenly contested and highly competitive.

The Governor who commended the electoral umpire for a successful exercise said though the process is not a perfect one, the votes of the people counted to a great extent compared to the previous elections in Nigeria. 

He enjoined the President-elect, his Vice and all other elected candidates across party lines to see their victory as an opportunity to serve and most importantly, unite the nation to greatness. 

The Governor also called on those who lost in the elections to accept the outcome in good fate, put any differences aside and join hands with the winners for the overall benefit of the country.

"I congratulate the President-elect, his Vice and all those who won in the last Saturday's elections.

"I urge you to be magnanimous in victory for the unity and development of our nation.

"I also explore those that lost the elections, to please put that behind them for the peace of our nation", he said.
