Nigerian entrepreneur and politician based in the United States of America (USA), Alhaji Saidu Ugonoh has congratulated the 47th President of the United States, Mr Donald Trump for winning the keenly contested race to the America White House.
Alhaji Saidu Ugonoh who is the Santuraki of Ebira land and former senior special assistant on Diaspora to ex-speaker of the House of Representatives and immediate past governor of Sokoto State , Senator Aminu Waziri Tambuwal said the second Trump coming will reset the economy of the United States and restore sanity across the globe.
In a congratulatory message shortly after the election was called with Trump surpassing the 270 electoral college votes, Alhaji Ugonoh commended the resilience and ingenuity of the majority of American people to choose the path that will usher in an administration that will make America and the world prosper.
According to him, “I am most delighted to congratulate the 47th president of the United States of America, Mr Donald Trump on his victory today. I have predicted over two years ago and even as recently as July this year when Harris was picked by Biden and I stood by my words that Harris was even a more easy walk- over for Trump.
“I predicted Trump was going to win more than 270 electoral college votes and could even garner 290 electoral votes if there would be a landslide victory at all”.
“And today, Trump is victorious, and this means a lot for us here in the United States of America, Africa as a continent and globally as a matter of fact.
” Trump’s second and last tenure as president should be supported by all well-meaning Americans, after all in America , once the elections are over, people move on to allow the government to focus on its promises, and I am confident that Trump will just not make America great but the world great
“His policies resonate with the people and will be beneficial to the world. He has promised to end the war in Gaza and the Russia/Ukraine war, and these are some of the troubling issues in the Middle East that have global implications.
“The American economy and border insecurity are some of America’s internal issues, and Trump will address them head-on.
“I congratulate him on what he has achieved for himself and this great country called America, and this will send the signals that sanity must return across the globe. America needs a Trump, and the world needs a Trump at this moment.
“Elections are won in America on the basis of the very issues that bother Americans, their concerns, yearnings and aspirations, not on emotions and sentiments. The best candidates win, and that is what happened today . This is a lesson for other countries especially Africa and Nigeria in particular. It is important to allow the best candidate to win, and when they fail to meet the yearnings of the people, they should be voted out regardless of where they come from.
“That is the way democracy works. It is not about the whims and caprices of a few; their scorecard matters,” he declared.
