The All Progressives Congress presidential candidate, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, says he’s been engaging with the electorate in the build up to the 2023 election. <\/p>\n
Tinubu spoke in an interview with Kano\u2019s premier independent radio, Freedom Radio, while on lesser Hajj in Saudi Arabia.<\/p>\n
Speaking about his media presence and boycotting interviews, he said he had instead been engaging people directly and indirectly.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat do you mean? Are we not having interviews now? I just finished talking to people through town-hall meetings and speaking directly to people. Those saying that are losers, and they will lose.<\/p>\n
\u201cI have moved around, spoken on different platforms, and stood for hours to address different audiences. Before, they said I could not walk; they said I could not stand. They were shamed. Since the campaign started, I have marshalled more original ideas than anyone else.<\/p>\n
\u201cI have demonstrated knowledge, experience and a great capacity to be on top of issues in the country. And this job is about ideas and issues regarding the leadership of our country.<\/p>\n
\u201cI have all it takes to be the president of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, and I am asking the people of the country to have confidence and respect for that. Look at my background and my previous assignments. I want to serve the country and serve the country very well.<\/p>\n
\u201cBy the engagements we are having, it is clear that we are going to win this election. As the elections draw closer, the signs are clear, and that is why our opponents are jittery. They have now resorted to peddling fake news and quoting some of my statements out of context just to score cheap points.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
