Nigerians will beg Tinubu to contest for second term - APC women leader

President-elect Bola Tinubu President-elect Bola Tinubu

The National women leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Betta Edu, is of the believe that Bola Tinubu would be a great leader to Nigerians.

According to her, after his first term in office, Nigerians will beg the president-elect to contest for a second term after he completes his first tenure.

The former Commissioner for Health in Cross River state made this known during an interview with Channels Television on Thursday, May 25.

She also asks Nigerians to understand that the country is a work in progress.

“I bet on anything, Nigerians would plead with Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, four years down the line, for a second term.

The first point we must understand is that Nigeria is a work in progress.

If you listen to the speech of President Muhammadu Buhari at the state banquet hall, he stated very clearly that he has fought a good fight. He said he is handing over Nigeria to someone who he believes will continue from where he stops and do better.

If you know Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, he is a deep thinker and doer. One who is very strong in terms of analysing and strategizing. I can boldly tell you for free that the next 60 days have clearly been spelt out by Tinubu — what he hopes to do, what he hopes to achieve, at what point and where.

He fully understands the task ahead of him. He is fully prepared. He wants to hit the ground running.”

Bola Tinubu having been declared winner by the Independent National Electoral Commission is expected to be inaugurated on Monday, May 29, 2023.
