President-elect Muhammadu Buhari has assured President Goodluck Jonathan that he has nothing to fear.

Buhari, in his acceptance speech after being declared the winner of Saturday’s presidential election and presented with certificate of return in Abuja on Wednesday, said “despite the rancour of the elections,” he harboured no grudge against anyone.

To prove this, he extended “a hand of friendship and reconciliation to President Jonathan and his team.”

Buhari read a prepared speech in which he also reiterated his determination to end insurgency in the North-East, rescue the economy and stem corruption which he described as an evil worse than terrorism.

The President-elect, who was Head of State between 1983 and 1985, said even though there could be a disagreement between him and Jonathan over governance, the President remained a great Nigerian.

Reiterating his readiness to fight corruption which, according to him, constitutes a threat to “our economic development and democratic survival,” he said, “no longer shall it( graft) be allowed to stand as if it is a respected monument in this nation.”
