There is an indication that the former President of the United States of America, Donald Trump may become the 47th President of the US.
Trump became more confident in his political comeback in American history after securing his third battleground victory on Tuesday evening by clinching Pennsylvania, bringing him closer to a White House win.
The 78 presidential candidates of the Republican Party already won 266 of the 270 Electoral College votes needed to defeat Vice President Kamala Harris of the Democrat Party.
Trump reversed his 2020 losses in the crucial states of Georgia, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin — running up big margins among his white rural and working-class base while making significant inroads among ethnic minorities.
Addressing supporters in Florida, Trump claimed victory, saying his performance is unprecedented in the history of the country.
He promised to help the US to heal, stressing that the country needs help very badly.
He also assured citizens of fixing critical infrastructure and other necessary areas of the country.
Meanwhile, President Bola Tinubu on Wednesday extended his congratulations to Donald Trump on his re-election as the 47th President of the United States of America.
Tinubu expressed his eagerness to strengthen the ties between Nigeria and the United States amid the complex challenges and opportunities of the contemporary world.
His congratulatory message was contained in a statement signed by his Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga.
Identifying synergy and cooperation with the US government as a means of fostering economic prosperity, the President of Nigeria noted that the relationship would promote peace, and address global challenges that affect their citizens.
He said Trump’s victory reflects the trust and confidence the American people have placed in his leadership.
