Presidential hopeful of the All Progressive Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu has stated that the growing number of people seeking the party’s presidential ticket is good for democracy.<\/p>\n

This was stated on Tuesday by the former Lagos state governor after meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari at the presidential villa, Abuja.<\/p>\n

Tinubu, who met with the president at his official residence, said the trend is in the best interest of the country.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe more the merrier. The more they come, the more challenging it becomes for you to think deeply, focus on issues and be ready to serve and Nigeria,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s all about service, it\u2019s nothing else. Think wisely, get committed to your thinking to serve the nation and bring progress and prosperity<\/a> to the lives of Nigerians.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s good for the country for so many of us to aspire to want to lead, we\u2019re not abandoning our nation. But there\u2019s only one chair and one possibility. We will do that.\u201d<\/p>\n

Tinubu said the ruling party would remain intact and united after its presidential primary, noting that President Buhari has shown that he is in support of a transparent democratic process.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are sure that we will remain united. You know our symbol is the broom, you don\u2019t break it as you go. Nigeria requires commitment, a uniform system and a stable country and that is the only way we can be very proud of Nigeria,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe president has shown a great example of leadership, gave us the freedom to say you want to run, you want to attempt, go ahead. He is a democrat and if we are running a constitutional democracy, you don\u2019t hinder the desire, the wish of other people.\u201d<\/p>\n

Tinubu added that the president has \u201cbeen very honest and forthright\u201d with Nigerians.<\/p>\n

The list of APC presidential hopefuls has been growing steadily in recent weeks.<\/p>\n

The aspirants include Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo; Bola Tinubu, former Lagos governor; Rotimi Amaechi, minister of transportation; Dave Umahi, Ebonyi state governor; Rochas Okorocha, former governor of Imo; Yahaya Bello, governor of Kogi state; Emeka Nwajiuba, minister of state for education.<\/p>\n

\n
\n

Others are Adams Oshiomhole, former governor of Edo; Kayode Fayemi, Ekiti state governor; Godswill Akpabio, minister of Niger Delta, and Chris Ngige, minister of labour and employment.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
