Be patient with Tinubu on election promises

The Deputy National Publicity Secretary of the All Progressives Congress, Duro Meseko, has appealed to Nigerians to trust in the ability of President Bola Tinubu to turn around the social and economic fortunes of the country.

Meseko, who spoke during an interactive session with journalists in Lokoja on Monday assured that Nigerians can trust President Tinubu to deliver on his election promises.

He described Tinubu as “an experienced politician, businessman and public administrator”, citing his exploits as  Lagos Governor and what he has started doing in the first 100 days in office as president of Nigeria.

“When you talk of visionary leadership, give it to him. A little over 100 days in office, see what he has done even his worst critics know that this man means business,” he said.

Some are still struggling to come out of the covid-19 crisis. But for a country like Nigeria to have survived it, it is a strong will of a leader. You talked about former President Buhari, he tried his best to manage the covid-19 crisis in a way that the economy did not go into total recession.

So, if you ask me what Nigerians should expect from President Tinubu, Nigerians should expect rapid economic growth and development. Nigerians should expect their rights to be protected, Nigerians should expect in all sectors, especially health, education, power; a new lease of life. Infrastructures will be transformed and a new Nigeria will be birthed under President Tinubu.

Meseko who is one of the recently sworn-in members of the APC National Working Committee described the party’s National Chairman, Abdullahi Ganduje, as “a democrat and listener who believes in doing things the right way” with a promise that past intra-party squabbles and resultant court litigations would soon become a thing of history under the Ganduje-led new NWC.

“I have been here for only about three weeks now since our inauguration and what I have seen in the leadership of the party, especially the National chairman of the party. He is a great democrat, a great listener, and a father figure. He is a very, very brilliant person. He believes in the rule of law and he believes in doing things the right way and I believe that it is a new dawn for the party,” he disclosed.
