Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential candidate for the 2023 general elections, has reassured Nigerians that his team has done everything necessary to ensure a successful campaign.
Speaking in Yoruba language during his latest speech, which has been making rounds on social media, he urged his supporters to keep calm and trust the process.
Tinubu acknowledged that the journey to the presidency is never easy, especially in a country of over 200 million people. He emphasized the need for hard work and dedication in achieving one’s goals, noting that nothing comes easy in life.
“E lo fokan bale,” he said, which translates to “keep your mind at rest” in English. This phrase has become popular among his supporters, who see it as a message of hope and assurance that their efforts will not be in vain.
In addition to his message of assurance, Bola Ahmed Tinubu also took the time to express gratitude to President Muhammadu Buhari for keeping to his word to hand over power when his tenure ends. Tinubu commended President Buhari for his commitment to democracy and for not attempting to extend his stay in office, unlike some other leaders, these words in reference to former President Olusegun Obasanjo who attempted to amend the constitution to allow him to seek a third term in office.
Tinubu’s words come at a critical time in Nigeria’s political landscape, as the country prepares for the 2023 general elections. Many Nigerians are concerned about the current state of the nation, including insecurity, poverty, and corruption, and are looking for a leader who can bring about positive change.
Tinubu, a former Governor of Lagos State, has been touted as a potential candidate for the presidency since the APC’s victory in the 2015 elections. He is widely regarded as one of the most influential politicians in Nigeria, with a strong base of supporters across the country.
However, his candidacy has also been met with opposition from some quarters, who accuse him of being a “godfather” and controlling politics in Lagos State. Critics have also raised concerns about his health, following reports of his hospitalization in 2021.
Despite these challenges, Tinubu remains optimistic about his chances in the upcoming elections. He has continued to travel across the country, meeting with various groups and stakeholders, and promoting his vision for a better Nigeria.
Tinubu’s message of assurance to his supporters is a reminder that success requires hard work and dedication. As Nigeria prepares for another election cycle, it is important for politicians to focus on the issues that matter most to the people, and to work towards building a better future for all.
