“He, therefore, declared that he has fulfilled the commitment made to Nigerians in his May 29, 2015 inaugural address to frontally and courageously tackle Boko Haram terrorists and stabilize the country.”

In another report, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) warned the residents of Adamawa state against voting for Atiku Abubakar, the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

Tinubu said this on Monday, January 9, 2023, at the APC presidential rally at the Maidoki Ground in Yola, the Adamawa state capital, according to a statement sent to Legit.ng by his media aide, Tunde Rahman.

“I hear that a former VP who comes from Adamawa wants to return to Aso Villa again. You have to decide whether you owe him your vote simply because he is from here or do you owe yourself a better nation and future. If you believe a better tomorrow is possible, then you cannot support Vice President Privatize Everything. If you give him the nation, he will sell all he can and leave you with nothing," Tinubu said.
