The Bola Ahmed Tinubu (BAT) Ideological Group, a support group for President Bola Tinubu, has called for efforts to institutionalise his politics, ideologies, and legacies.
The group’s convener, Bamidele Atoyebi, made the call in Lagos, noting that President Tinubu is not just a politician, but an institution that should be studied.
Atoyebi stated that the group had launched a handbook titled “Bola Ahmed Tinubu (BAT) Ideological Group Handbook,” commending President Tinubu for being an enigma.
He emphasised the need to raise a new generation of leaders who embody Tinubu’s spirit of leadership, generosity, humanity, and service.
According to Atoyebi, Tinubu is a man who believes in generosity, principle of service, humility, courage, and progressive ideas.
He noted that the President’s leadership style is characterised by taking tough decisions and promoting good governance for all.
On Tinubu’s performance in the last two years, Atoyebi said that the President had exceeded the expectations of many Nigerians.
He listed some of the President’s notable achievements, including fuel subsidy removal, stabilisation of foreign exchange, road infrastructure development, debt management, and student loans.
The convener revealed that the group had coordinators in most states of the federation and had started sensitising Nigerians on the President’s vision and ideologies.
He disclosed that the group comprises highly respected individuals, including professors, engineers, and medical doctors, who are committed to spreading Tinubu’s ideologies.
Atoyebi emphasised that the group is not just a regular support group but a platform for anyone who claims to be Tinubu’s protégé to have a deep understanding of the President’s values and principles.
He noted that the group’s goal is to ensure that Tinubu’s legacy continues even after he leaves office.
“We want to make sure that we raise as many people as we can that will also have his kind of spirit of leadership, spirit of generosity, spirit of humanity, spirit of service, among others.
“With our handbook launched few days ago, we are not just only working toward his re-election, we are working toward building as many young men and women, youthful Nigerians who will understand who Bola Ahmed Tinubu is.
“Tinubu is a man who believes in generosity, a man who believes in principle of service, a man who believes in humility, a man who is courageous and a man who is politically rugged.
“He is a man who can take tough decisions, a man who believes in progressive ideas, a man who wants good governance for all. He has even done so much and he deserves to continue, with his reforms and various interventions and policies, putting the country on track,” he said.
