Today is indeed a great day for the supporters of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
The party’s presidential candidate and President-elect, Bola Tinubu, has received the national honour of the Grand Commander of the Federal Republic (GCFR).
President Buhari also conferred the vice president-elect, Senator Kashim Shettima with the Grand Commander of Order of the Niger (GCON) honour.
The investiture of the two highest national honours on the incoming leaders was done on Thursday.
The event was held at the State House Conference Centre in Abuja, as part of the Presidential Inauguration programme of events.
