The presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, (APC), Asíwájú Bola Tinubu, has dismissed insinuations of disagreement between him and the President, Muhammadu Buhari, describing the latter’s support as unalloyed and enduring.
Speaking at the APC rally in Gusau, the Zamfara State capital, on Saturday, Tinubu pledged to leverage the State’s agrarian potential to tackle its developmental challenges.
Reading from a speech, the former Lagos State governor said, “I have supported President Buhari even before his first day in office. I will continue to be his supporter and friend after his last day in office.
“He tackled the problems other leaders ran away from. He has earned a place in history that cannot be denied. I have said this before and will say it again now; when the true history of this moment is written, the President shall be treated very kindly because of his contributions to the nation”, he said.
He also praised the Zamfara State Governor, Bello Matawalle, for his role in tackling the security challenges in the State, stressing that alongside his running mate, Kashim Shettima, they had what it would take to restore peace, not only in Zamfara but across the nation as a whole.
A statement issued by the Tinubu Media Office, and signed by AbdulAziz AbdulAziz, quoted the presidential candidate as saying that “If Allah blesses us to win this election, we will not relent until we beat this problem”.
