The All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate and former Lagos State governor, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu has declared that he is confident of winning the 2023 general elections.
To this end, he practically begged the Kaduna State governor, Nasir El-Rufai to remain back in the country in 2023 to work with him if is eventually elected president.
Tinubu who spoke yesterday at the 7th Kaduna Investment Summit also stressed that he would “solve all the problems in Nigeria if elected president.”
The presidential hopeful who was escorted to and from the podium by Governor El-Rufai said: “If you leave me on the podium I will continue to campaign here. Don’t run away from Nigeria in 2023, because we need your creativity at this critical time.”
El-Rufai then came to the podium and said: “I promise to stay even on s part-time basis.”
Meanwhile, Lagos State Governor, Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu has told Nigerians to see the aspiration of Tinubu, as a blessing to the country because of the magic wand he possesses in resolving challenges.
The governor while boasting of Tinubu’s capacity, capability and credibility, said he would replicate the template of the successes recorded in Lagos State in different sectors at the federal level when voted into power in the 2023 general elections.
Sanwo-Olu said this at the formal commissioning of the Peace Park in Ketu, yesterday.
The Peace Park, which is an initiative of the governor, is strategically located at the intersection between Ikorodu Road and the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway. The governor said the park is intended to further promote peaceful coexistence among Lagosians, especially as the 2023 general elections approach.
Sanwo-Olu stressed that nothing would be impossible in the country if there is peace and tranquility.
He said that the park would serve as a source of convergence, unity, and tourist attraction to Lagos residents, especially youths in the state.
