The All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu has said he will remain a friend and ally of President Muhammadu Buhari even after May 29, 2023.
Mr Tinubu revealed this on Tuesday at the ongoing 3-day ministerial retreat for Ministers and Permanent Secretaries in Abuja, according to a statement by his Media Office signed by Tunde Rahman.
The ruling party’s flag bearer said efforts made by the Buhari administration to set the country on the right path “after years of maladministration” would never be forgotten by Nigerians even long after they have left.
The statement said, “Thank you, President Buhari and may I say thank you on behalf of all Nigerians to your entire administration, represented by all present today. We supported you before your first day in office. I will remain your friend and ally even after your final day at the job.
“I can say this because I know the vision you hold for Nigeria. It is a good and uplifting one. I know the level of patriotic dedication with which you have served this nation. I know the things you have achieved.
“May I say this to you and to your entire team; the things you have done are important and enduring. Try as they might, no one can take those achievements away from you. Yet, it is the fate of the selfless worker to labor too hard and too long to write his own story. He would rather accomplish things for the good of all than to focus attention on himself.”
