Sanwo-Olu says Tinubu is most qualified candidate for 2023 presidency

Sanwo-Olu said Nigeria needs a capable leader with progressive ideas to succeed President Muhammadu Buhari next year.

Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu has describes the National Leader of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) Bola Ahmed Tinubu as the most qualified and marketable choice for the 2023 presidential election.

The governor while speaking during the formal inauguration of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu (ABAT) Movement’s Working Committees said Tinubu’s capability to effectively manage human and material resources stands him out as the most qualified candidate.

Sanwo-Olu said Nigeria needs a capable leader with progressive ideas to succeed President Muhammadu Buhari next year.

He said, “If our country must be great, we have the responsibility to choose the leadership that will bring about true transformation across every facet of our national life. Who is that rallying figure that should lead us in this journey? The answer is deeply connected to our mission and purpose here today.

“That person must be a detribalised Nigerian and a bridge builder, who has been tested and trusted. A thinker who must sustain the legacy our current president is leaving behind. That person is the reason we are inaugurating this movement for the actualisation of his presidential ambition. That person is our great leader, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

“Let us tell the naysayers and those who are still in doubt that we are ready to work for the realisation of this ambition, because Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu is the number one salable candidate for the president. We will preach this gospel with diligence, dedication and high sense of commitment. Asiwaju is an unfolding success story our nation deserves at this time.

“We must see ourselves in line with Asiwaju’s political ideals. To be open to all, tolerate various interests and embrace everyone. We must reflect those ideas of our leader in our utterances and actions. You cannot afford to disappoint us on this mission.”

It would be recalled that Tinubu announced his presidential ambition earlier in the month.

The former governor of Lagos State said he had informed the President of his ambition, adding that he would inform Nigerians when he’s done consulting.

EFCC insists on presentation of Grace Tiaga's death certificate in P&ID case

Tiaga's counsel communicated the unavailability of the death certificate, requesting additional time. The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) is steadfast in its demand for the death certificate of the late Grace Tiaga, a former director of legal services at the Ministry of Petroleum Resources, to be submitted in court. Tiaga faced charges brought by the EFCC, alleging her involvement in receiving payments from Process & Industrial Development (P&ID) to manipulate the 20-year gas supply and processing agreement (GSPA) against Nigeria. The EFCC claims that these illicit payments were made through her daughter and persisted even after her retirement. The accusations extend to Tiaga's purported failure to adhere to due process while providing legal counsel on the GSPA. Initially facing eight counts of fraud, she was remanded to Suleja prison in 2019, later granted bail, and the charges were expanded to 13 counts. As the trial progressed, the prosecution p...
