December 25, (THEWILL) – An Abeokuta, Ogun State High Chief, Otunba Adejare Adegbenro, has endorsed Bola Ahmed Tinubu, presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), for the 2023 presidential election.
Adegbenro, who doubled as a security expert, said the former Lagos State Governor, has the midas touch to turn Nigeria into greatness judging his democratic antecedent in Lagos and his track record of performance in the private sector
“Out of all the presidential candidates engaging in the ongoing electioneering towards the 2023 contest, Tinubu appears to have been adequately prepared for the job ahead.
“He is best placed as Nigeria’s next president judging by his track record of performance in the private and public service.
“His democratic antecedence and executive experience as former Governor of Lagos State for two terms is an added advantage for him.
“He held his own, laid the foundation for modern Lagos we are enjoying today. I have no doubt about his capabilities to replicate it at the national level. Lagos is still the safest, despite its population of about 25 million people.
“Some are peddling falsehoods that he’s sick, can a sick person move around the way he does? Every day he is working. In fact, his schedule is busier than some incumbent Governors. Only God giveth and taketh,” he said in a statement.
Adegbenro, who is also the grandson of the late financier of the famous National Democratic Coalition (NADECO), Alfred Rewane, added: “Tinubu fought in the trenches under the watchful eyes of my grandfather against the military dictatorship, the result of which is the democratic experience we are enjoying today in Nigeria.”
He urged Nigerians to consider the APC presidential flag bearer, Tinubu, for the 2023 project.
Adegbenro, a renowned security expert also endorsed the second-term bid of Ogun State Governor, Dapo Abiodun.
He said the Governor has transformed the state with monumental projects that will outlive him.
“Dapo Abiodun has done well for my state. I’m a blunt person and I’m very economical with commendations, but whatever I say about the Governor Abiodun-led administration is known to the good people of the state.
“There’s no vacancy in the Governor’s office. He’s a performing Governor. As close as I am to him, it’s hard to see him and it’s better to see a working Governor than the one who only talks and junkets around the world.
“The agro-cargo airport that seemed unrealistic has now berthed in Ilishan Remo, and swiftly, big investments are coming into the state. That’s just one out of many”
