…Says Buhari will vacate office in 2023
The national leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Mr Asiwaju Ahmed Bola Tinubu said Nigerians must remain united in the wake of current security challenges confronting some parts of the country.
Addressing State House correspondents after a meeting with the President Muhammadu Buhari, Tinubu said all Nigerians need to put aside their religious, political or ethnic differences and cooperate with security agents, to surmount the problem.
“Yes, every nation will go through these curves and difficult times but how we communicate it to the people and what are the areas to make it easier for the people to bear, those are ideas we have to be able to exchange with the leadership of the country.
“It calls for coming together to reduce banditry, move for unity and be able to bring a better Nigeria to the people because the welfare of our people is extremely important. This also calls for cooperation and understanding, effective security and effective giving of information,” he said.
Tinubu said President Buhari has the interest of all Nigerians at heart and would not like to see them facing difficulties.
“There is no President who will want to see his country in chaos nor is there anyone who will want to see his citizens exposed to banditry and danger. No President or a leader that will want to see his nation fractured in tribalism or religious differences and others. The current challenges call for serious management, evaluation and dialogue once in a while,” he said.
The APC chieftain assured Nigerians that President Buhari respects the Nigerian constitution and will vacate office at the expiration of his tenure.
He said the APC is loved by Nigerians and has bright chances of ruling the country beyond 2023.
“The chances are as bright as a midnight star and we will continue to work for a better Nigeria. We cannot interject politics and assumption in everything, we have a nation to build.
“We have a baton to pass. You can depend on Buhari that he will not spend one hour beyond his tenure. He will comply with the constitution,” he said.
