Bola Tinubu, the All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential candidate, has praised President Muhammadu Buhari for his contributions to the nation’s development.
Tinubu made the remarks on Tuesday at the start of the APC presidential campaign in Jos, the Plateau state capital, at the Rwang Pam township stadium.
The APC presidential candidate stated that when history is written, it will be kind to Buhari for the accomplishments his administration has made in eight years.
He claimed that when Buhari took power in 2015, he rescued the country from Boko Haram terrorists and dismantled strange flags in areas taken over by the insurgents.
Tinubu stated that the country will not collapse under the ruling APC, and that if elected President in 2023, he will renew Nigerians’ hope.
He said:
Nigeria will not sink in the time of APC. When the history of this period is objectively written, it will smile upon you. Don’t worry about what they say. This history will still be written by us.
Hope is back and renewed. They thought they could bury the hope, but I recall from the speech I made in 2015. When there was a problem around WW2, the British were sinking. They turned to their general Winston Churchill. We were in trouble from 2011 up till 2015 and we turned to our general, Muhammadu Buhari.
We put him where he embarked on the rehabilitation of the country and redeeming the nation’s promise. What did he do? He started by dismantling strange flags in our LGAs. We say ‘thank you, sir.
