He said that having voted out the “jackals and hyenas” in the PDP administration in 2015, it would be unfortunate for Nigerians to have the opposition back in power.

In a statement issued by Tunde Rahman, the spokesperson for Tinubu, the former Lagos state governor commended the people for doing the courageous task of chasing the opposition away.

His words:

"Do not let them back into power. Like locusts, they will devour everything in their path!
“Instead, vote for the people that have a track record of delivering prosperity to the people. We did it in Lagos and Borno, and with your help, we will do it again for Nigeria. Vote for the people with the vision, the capacity, the competence and the integrity to do what is right.
“Vote for responsive and responsible leadership. Vote for us. Vote for the APC on February 25 and March 11.”
