The All Progressives Congress, APC, Presidential Candidate, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu has called on the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Presidential Candidate, Atiku Abubakar to quash his Presidential ambition following his unsuccessful attempt to win the Presidential election on two occasions.
Tinubu made the call during his Presidential Campaign at Oporoza, Headquarters of Gbaramatu kingdom of Delta State, where he met with Traditional Rulers and stakeholders of the Niger Delta region.
Speaking with the the Monarchs and stakeholders, the former Lagos State Governor said, “As I stand before you, there are few of us running. One says he is Atiku, how many times has he been running? He is now tired of running. Let’s tell him to go and sit down and quit the race. Enough is enough.”
He added that Labour Party, LP, presidential candidate, Peter Obi, is a man that is not wanted by Nigerians because “he lies with arithmetic that no mathematician can solve.
“To mention his name is a disgrace to me. He gives out wrong arithmetic and wrong statistics on the economy. That is not what Nigerians want. Nigerians need honesty, they need the man who knows the road to take, and that man is me,” Tinubu stated.
He identified himself as a son in-law of the Niger Delta and appealed for support in the electioneering campaign, promising to carry everyone along, develop the area and renew the hope of the people.
The traditional ruler of Gbaramatu kingdom, Oboro Gbaruan II, hosted the meeting and conferred chieftaincy titles on Tinubu, Omo-Agege and others.
The Monarch requested access road to his kingdom when Tinubu emerged.
Tinubu was accompanied to the Creeks alongside Governor Abdullahi Ganduje of Kano State, his Yobe State counterpart, Mai Buni; the Ministers of State for Petroleum Resources and that of Labour and Productivity, Timipre Sylva and Festus Keyamo respectively.
Others were former House of Representatives Speaker, Dimeji Bankole; Senator Omo-Agege’s running mate, Friday Osanebi; Delta APC Chairman, Chief Oseni Sobotie; Delta APC Campaign Director-General, Godsday Orubebe and a Bayelsa State APC chieftain, David Lyon, among others.
