A member of the national caucus of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Chief Sam Nkire has urged President Bola Ahmed Tinubu not to toe the part of his predecessor, Muhammadu Buhari who he said did little to address the problems of ordinary Nigerians.
He however advised Nigerians to embrace the government of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu with hope and faith in God.
In his congratulatory message to Tinubu, Nkire who described the president as a patriot and an achiever who keeps his words and promises, said he was sure the new president would make Nigeria one hundred percent better than Buhari left it.
He recalled his experience and encounters with the now President in 2014 when he joined Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso to prevail on Tinubu to support Kwankwaso for President, a request to which Tinubu answered, each time: “ I am sorry, I have already given my word to Buhari.”
The APC founding member described Buhari’s performance as President as: ‘’surprising and a bit disappointing’’, but assured Nigerians that Tinubu would “make things better in no distant time”.
Nkire enjoined the people of Nigeria to rekindle their hope in democracy and its dividends of unity, peace and progress, which according to him, “President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is sure to bring”.
The APC leader also seized the opportunity to encourage members of All Progressives Congress, especially the would-be office-holders, to remain steadfast and committed to their avowed mission of “growing the party and building the nation.”
