The Arewa community in Lagos State have pleaded to All Progressives Congress (APC) National Leader Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu to run for the president in 2023.
At a rally in Coker-Aguda and Itire-Ikate Local Council Development Areas (LCDAs), Lagos State to launch Tinubu support group, the Arewa people said, Tinubu possessed the quality needed to continue President Muhammadu Buhari’s developmental projects.
Their leader, Ahmed Abdullahi, noted that the former Lagos State governor had paid his dues in the political terrain; hence he deserved to lead the country.
He said Asiwaju Tinubu remained the most competent person to take over from President Buhari.
“We saw how he transformed Lagos State and made it a place for all to earn a living. He did not discriminate against any tribe by making Lagos home for all of us. We are telling the world; especially the people in the North that Asiwaju (Tinubu) can be trusted. We saw how he stood by President Buhari even when people were against him. This is the time for the North to return good for good because we are not known for betraying people,” he said.
Abdullahi said Coker-Aguda LCDA was picked for the launch because the council chairman is also a detribalised woman.
“She has made Coker-Aguda a home to all Nigerians by appointing non-Yoruba as special advisers,” he said.
Coker-Aguda LCDA Chairman Mrs Omobolanle Akinyemi-Obe thanked the Arewa community for launching support group for Tinubu.
She said all ethnic groups in the council are routing for Tinubu to run for the president.
“We have confidence in Asiwaju Tinubu to lead our country to greater height and bring smiles to the faces of Nigerians,” she said.
Her counterpart in Itire-Ikate LCDA, Dr. Ahmed Apatira, described Asiwaju Tinubu as the best man to take over from President Buhari.
He said all tribes in the council are ready to support Asiwaju Tinubu.
