.. As Arewa community flood inaugural meeting.
By Ibrahim A. Jagaba
As the 2023 general elections draw nearer, national leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), and erstwhile governor of Lagos state, senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu, who has declared his interest to become Nigeria’s next president, come 2023, is continuing to enjoy support and endorsement by an avalanche of support groups, with the latest one being the “Tinubu Is Key” group, adding it force to the growing yearnings for a Tinubu presidency.
The Tinubu Is Key group, codenamed, TIK, as reliably gathered, is born out of the knowledge and comprehension that, the APC national leader’s record and credentials in good and development governance as at today’s contemporary Nigeria, stands tallest and unrivalled, in the words of the senior special assistant (SSA), on civic engagement to governor sanwoolu, Princess Aderemi Adebowale, who spoke yesterday, at the inaugural meeting in Adeniyi Jones area of Ikeja metropolis, in her capacity as a co-convener.
Continuing, she averred that, Tinubu’s stewardship of Lagos state as governor between the years 1999-2007, kick-started the regeneration of Lagos state to the unfolding greater Lagos, which his successors have continued to consolidate, with governor Sanwoolu furthering the vision and master plan, as actioned by the Jagaban Borgu.
Also speaking at the meeting, a youth co-convener and the Lagos state youth leader in the All Progressives Congress executive, Idris Aregbe, described Tinubu as an uncommon being, with Godly endowments to impact humanity for good; Aregbe, went further to describe Tinubu’s forgiving spirit as equally uncommon, as he was always ready to let go of betrayals and ills done to him by trusted persons and detractors alike.
He will always tell you that, the fact that, one is found to be in a bad book in a moment, does not condemn the person not to be able to be in the good book another moment, because we are human, Aregbe concluded.
The senior special assistant (SSA), on the diaspora to governor Sanwoolu, Jermain Sanwoolu, who also spoke at the event, lent a strong voice to the Tinubu for president mandate and encouraged attendees to push the message further.
The high point of the inaugural meeting of the Tinubu Is Key support group, was the deluge of ethnic nationalities especially the Arewa community Lagos state, who thronged the venue in multitude to re-affirm their support and endorsement of senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu for president as contained in the message delivered by the Lagos state secretary of the Arewa United Group, Alhaji Musa Saleh, on behalf of their principal; he thus, conveyed the goodwill message of the honorable commissioner for waterfront infrastructure development Lagos state, Arc. Ahmed Kabiru Abdullahi, who incidentally, is a co-convener of the Tinubu Is Key (TIK), support group and Lagos state chairman of the Arewa community.
Numerous other attendees that spoke during the unveiling echoed Tinubu’s sterling leadership qualities and impact on human capital development and all round infrastructural regeneration in the economic nerve center of the country, while, he served as governor and his penchant for vibrant performers as his successors,
The closing message and mandate of the TIK support group as jointly communicated by the conveners, was Tinubu has the key to unlock Nigeria’s prosperity for all strata of Nigerians, thus, every believer was responsible for the expansion of the mandate to the unbelievers of the project; they concluded that, the social media was the main and strategic channel the group aims to maximize in expanding the vision and spreading the Tinubu Is Key gospel.
