Buhari said this in Osogbo on Monday during a courtesy visit to Governor Rauf Aregbesola at the Government House.

The former Head of State said that the governorship elections in Ekiti and Osun State should be an eye-opener for Nigerians ahead of the 2015 elections.

While congratulating Aregbesola, Buhari said that his re-election was a triumph of democracy and the wish of the majority.

According to him, the people of the state knew what is good for them and they resisted the opposition by voting for Aregbesola massively.

The APC leader said that he was in the state to invite the governor to his formal declaration for the presidential race.

He said, “Part of why we are here is to congratulate you on your credible re-election and personal leadership qualities.
