The much anticipated unveiling of the Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu Presidential Campaign ahead of the 2023 elections has commenced.
Tinubu Support Group, TSG, the Group spearheading the ambition of the former Lagos State Governor in succeeding President Muhammadu Buhari in 2023 has unveiled the “Asiwaju legacies” and inaugurated States” Steering Committee of Bola Tinubu’s campaign.
At a glamorous event held at the National Secretariat of the TSG, in Maitama in Abuja, supporters of the All Progressives Congress, National Leader wore vests, fez caps and other regalia indicating that Tinubu has finally thrown his hat in the 2023 Presidential race.
The TSG inauguration of State Steering Committees and the beginning of Campaign for the Presidential ambition of Tinubu further explain why the astute politician returned home two weeks ago, having spent months in London, the United Kingdom, where he underwent knee surgery.
Different Groups across the 36 States of the federation and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) were present with a large crowd of supporters across the six geo-political zones, chanting the name of Tinubu as the right man to succeed President Buhari.
James Abiodun Faleke, member of the House of Representatives, representing Ikeja II Federal Constituency delivered the keynote address, saying that the APC must prepare grounds for an orderly transition of power to another APC Government in 2023 by fielding Tinubu as its Presidential candidate.
“Our party and Government must snap victory from the jaws of these challenges.
“It is not the time to experiment with inexperienced experts. It is not the season for those who can talk but have no history of walking their talk.
“To secure the votes of the majority in 2023, we must present a candidate that knows where the shoe pinches the average Nigerian, not just because he has been but because, as the Governor of the most difficult, most complex state in Nigeria, he put smiles on the faces of the poor by convincing the rich to join the Government to chase poverty from the streets.
“That man is Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the Asiwaju of Lagos, Lagos State.
“Our party is therefore lucky that it does not need to go on a wild goose chase for the man to fly our party’s flag in these challenging times; a time when the Presidency of the Federal Republic of Nigeria must go to the person who can continue to end banditry, to crush kidnappers and engage separatists so that our people can live in peace and prosperity.
“We have discovered a man who is ready to sacrifice all he has for his fatherland.
“It is now clear that the meeting of minds between him and President Buhari is grounded in their circumstances.
“Just like President Buhari left power in august 1985 but continued to mark the higher standards of the progressive military in government, the image and relevance of our man of the moment soared in public consciousness despite his unofficial status,” Faleke said.
