His words:
“Youths of Benue be determined to get you PVCs revalidated. I’m with you and my other colleagues here are with you as well as many others who are not here are with you to ensure your posterity and the hope of a united prosperous Nigeria is yours.
“So, we are of age and if you want us to retire soon but I’m won’t retire until I become president of Nigeria."
Tinubu's associate reveals another party APC chieftain plans to join, gives condition
In another news, an associate of Tinubu had said the APC presidential hopeful had concluded plans to dump the ruling party if the primaries were schemed against him.
The associate who spoke on the condition of anonymity said the development was the reason former Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), Babachir Lawal, stated recently that Tinubu had plan B if APC primaries are manipulated against him.
Although he noted that APC remains the primary platform Tinubu intends to actualize his presidential ambition; other options including the Social Democratic Party (SDP) would be explored if the primaries come short of transparency and credibility.
