The Emir of Zazzau, Mallam Ahmed Nuhu Bamalli, urged the incoming administration of Tinubu to evolve new measures to tame the insecurity situation in the country.

The emir, who made the plea in his message during a Sallah durbar at his palace, said there was a need for the government to improve security and protect the lives and property of citizens.

Recall that in March, INEC declared the candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Ahmed Tinubu as winner of the 2023 presidential election.

Tinubu defeated 17 other candidates who took part in the election. He scored a total of 8,794,726 votes, the highest of all the candidates, thus meeting the first constitutional requirement to be declared the winner.

He also scored over 25 per cent of the votes cast in 30 states, more than the 25 states constitutionally required.

Atiku Abubakar of PDP who came second polled a total of 6,984,520 votes in the election.

Peter Obi of the Labour Party came third in the election with a total of 6,101,533 votes while Rabiu Kwankwaso of the NNPP came fourth with 1,496,687 votes.

Only the top four candidates won the presidential election in at least one state. Each of Messrs Tinubu, Atiku and Obi won in 12 states while Mr Kwankwaso won only in Kano.
