Why Tinubu would emerge victorious, by Nkire

Member of the All Progressives Congress APC National Caucus, Chief Sam Nkire has identified why the presidential candidate of the party, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu would emerge victorious in the 2023 poll.

Nkire in a chat with reporters in Abuja argued that Tinubu’s main rival of the people’s democratic party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar doesn’t stand the chance because he does not enjoy the support of five PDP card-carrying governors of the party.

Chief Nkire who is also the immediate-past Caucus Leader of the Abia State branch of the APC recalled that history was about to repeat itself, adding that, “whenever the PDP loses the full support of five governors, it loses the presidential election”.

The APC chieftain recalled that the PDP lost five governors to the APC in 2014 and lost the presidency to the APC wondering why some of the ‘dramatis personae’ such as Dr Bukola Saraki would not warn his party of the looming political danger.

He argued that the fact that the main opposition party, the PDP appears unable to reconcile with its five governors, was a good omen for the ruling All Progressives Congress to tighten its grip on power by recording another resounding victory over the PDP, come 2023.

Chief Nkire however, cautioned his party to do more to pacify all aggrieved and excluded pioneer members of the APC who according to him, “are now pipping into the house they built through the window ”

The APC stalwart said he was confident the party’s presidential candidate, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, who he described as ” a cornerstone at the foundation of APC”, knows all the pioneer members in question and was capable of doing what it takes to genuinely unite the party.
