However, hatred and bitterness towards each other shouldn’t have a place between us.“You might not see things the way I see it. That doesn’t mean I’m right and you are wrong. It just means that we are different. If your candidates had won, I would have prayed and worked for their successes and mine.“I apologise to those offended by my support. I seriously condemn all the violence across Nigeria. I have mixed feelings for your genuine anger and not for my candidate’s winning. I, however, pray that Nigerians’ lives get better“.
In conclusion, Seyi Law's apology is a positive step towards healing and reconciliation, and it is an example that other public figures and politicians can follow to foster a peaceful and united Nigeria.
