Shamsudden Danbazau, a member of the House of Representatives, stated that he was afraid of going to mosques before the All Progressives Congress (APC) took power.
He insisted that the APC had performed admirably while in power and that it should be given another chance.
Danbazau believes that no other candidates have a chance against the APC’s flag bearer, Bola Tinubu.
On Thursday in Abuja, he responded to questions from National Assembly correspondents.
The son of the retired Chief of Army Staff believes the APC flag bearer has what it takes to turn the country around.
Tinubu has the experience to take the country out of the current doldrum. He is the man that has the experience to take care of all these issues affecting Nigerians; he will put the country together and douse tension, he said.
He argued that recent developments have indicated that Tinubu has already won the election.
Danbazau insisted that APC has been tested and found to have made significant contributions to the progress of the country.
Tinubu is a successful Chief Executive Officer, he has not failed in any of his endeavours, by voting for him we are hiring him and by February, we will all vote for him and he will win the election, he boasted.
Speaking about the country’s security challenges, Danbazau stated that Nigeria had made progress, adding that the deployment of drones had significantly improved the security situation.
He stated that he was previously afraid of going into the mosque due to bomb attacks, but that there has been a significant change since Buhari took office.
We need to have more geo special mapping of the country, where we can send drones to attack terrorists in every corner of the country.
From 2014 to 2018 I refused to go for Friday prayers for fear of bomb attacks. I had to remain in the house or pray in the barracks, but since 2016, I have been attending congregational prayers in public places.
I was at the Banex Plaza, Abuja, when a bomb went off just before the coming of the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari in 2014; now we don’t have such incidents.
The security challenge has been addressed and you can see what the president is doing by investing in heavily, acquiring drones, doing researches and sending our military officers to other countries to learn about tackling security challenges, he said.
