The Presidential candidate of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, has pledged to build on the achievements of President Muhammadu Buhari in the last seven years.
Tinubu made the pledge Tuesday in Jos at the flag off of APC presidential campaign for 2023 general elections.
The APC presidential candidate said that Buhari performed well in the areas of infrastructure and laid a solid foundation for development of agriculture and other sectors.
“We were insecure, we turned to retired Gen. Muhammadu Buhari and he embarked on rehabilitation, recovery and redeeming of Nigeria.
“He started by destroying the terrorists’ flags systematically, tactically and frontally and today there are no flags of strange military colours in any of our local governments in Nigeria.
“Nigeria was sinking but Buhari pulled us out and said that Nigeria will not sink in his time and in the time of the APC,” he said.
He stated that Buhari superintended over a most fair and credible primary election that produced him as the flag bearer.
Tinubu reaffirmed his commitment to good governance and fruits that it would bring to the people.
The presidential candidate stated that the 2023 general election “is a fight not to leave the country to looters.
“We will never surrender to them to stop the efforts to clean the rot they left us in.
“We will assemble the best team to reverse the decay. We are determined to ensure that nobody will go to bed without food in their stomach.
“Buhari cares and we care too, instead of letting them distract us, we will follow our right path and ensure that we continue with the good work”.
Tinubu said if elected, his administration would continue the oil exploration in all frontiers in the basins and develop commercial oil found in Gombe State and Lake Chad Basin.
