The All Progressives Congress (APC) has said Bola Tinubu, its presidential standard-bearer, will right the wrongs of the party and his predecessor and will not loot Nigeria’s treasury because he is wealthy.
In an interview on Wednesday, the Zamfara APC publicity secretary, Yusuf Idris, said Tinubu is poised to do better than incumbent President Muhammadu Buhari if elected in 2023.
“…He is the type of person who is not greedy, who is out to accumulate wealth if elected,” said the party official. “All what he is going to see, he has it at his disposal for over 10 to 20 years ago.”
Idris said Nigerians would smile if they elected Tinubu in 2023, assuring that the presidential candidate will take Nigeria to the promised land of economic prosperity and security.
According to the APC official, Tinubu is a renowned industrialist and would put in place measures to bolster the economic system in the country.
“He has vast experience in economics, security and governance. He is capable of consolidating the achievements of President Muhammadu Buhari and even surpassing him,” he added. “He will surpass him because every good father will want his son to inherit him, and Tinubu will be a good successor to Buhari.”
Idris further described the APC presidential candidate as a believer in the democratic system and its ideals.
“He is not a leader who operates like in the military. He doesn’t dictate. He always allows the people to vote for their choices. Tinubu has a wealth of experience, and he has all the qualities to be a president of the Federal Republic of Nigeria,” the politician explained.
