President Muhammadu Buhari has said that Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, the presidential flagbearer of the All Progressives Congress (APC), is the the next president of Nigeria.
The president who made this known at the party’s campaign in Nasarawa on Saturday, described Tinubu as a “competent Nigerian”, who will give all he has for the country.
“I’m very pleased today to be part of this campaign for Bola Ahmed Tinubu as the next president of the Federal Republic of Nigeria,”
“I have known him for more than twenty-six years ago. I will continue to campaign for Bola Tinubu. He is a committed Nigerian and I believe he will give all he has to this country and to you Nigerians.”
The development comes amid alleged conspirators in the APC and some Northern elements trying to scuttle the ambition of Tinubu by foisting scarcity of naira and fuel on the masses to frustrate the APC success at the polls.
But Tinubu took a swipe at the alleged saboteurs in a rally in Abeokuta, saying” Even if you change the ink on naira notes, what you want will not happen. We will win. That umbrella party will lose. We will take this government from them — saboteurs that are dragging power with us,”
