Leader of the group, Fashola Adeyemi, stated this at the weekend while addressing newsmen shortly after a peaceful march held to drum support for Tinubu’s consensus candidature in Kano.
Adeyemi, who led the 500 meter distance trek which terminated at the APC state secretariat along Maiduguri road, believed the consensus candidature of the former Lagos State governor will not stop at victory for the party, but also bring about consolidation on the gains and achievements of the President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration.
Adeyemi declared that the group and other progressives parties will not hesitate to resist in its entirety, any calculated act that may truncate the endorsement of Tinubu as consensus candidate at the APC presidential primary.
According to him, “We have followed with keen interest the activities, achievements and commitment of Tinubu over the years up till date and we realise that, it will only be wise and in the best interest of our great party, the APC to endorse Bola Tinubu as the consensus candidate and flag bearer of the party in the forthcoming general election in 2023.
“His relationship and association with the North has given him the privilege to enjoy mass support and followership. Equally, he is experienced, eminently qualified, a detribalised Nigerian, passionate about the welfare and well-being of his people.
“His antecedents are everywhere for anyone to see. Beyond reasonable doubt, he remains the best man to fly the party’s flag in the general election. We are optimistic that with Tinubu as the consensus candidate, the APC would not just win elections, but he will consolidate on the gains and achievements of President Muhammadu Buhari.
Receiving the group at the party Secretariat, Director, Research and Communication, Alhaji Abdullahi, said Kano is strongly behind the candidature of the national leader, Tinubu and believes only him can lead the party to victory in 2023.
