Just In: They think we're gods - Tinubu breaks silence on Edo election defeat

By News Proof

The following statement was credited to Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the National Leader of All Progressives Congress, APC on the Saturday's governorship election in Edo State.

It was shared on Facebook by Adeboye Adebayo, a die-hard supporter of Tinubu.

The APC was defeated by the PDP.

"We should enjoy and take pleasure from our defeats as much as we take from our victories.

The extent and length they go to see us down shows how great we are.

Our defeats should be a lesson that we are not gods, that we are but men.

That we are mortals who suffer from set backs, betrayals... But if our fellow men see us as gods and celebrate our defeats like they've defeated gods, then surely we must be close to being gods.

They seek schadenfreude at our shrine but we only have to give, exactly what they hate us for.
