According to Oshodi, Tinubu offers the best hope among all the frontline presidential candidates economically and politically. \u201c He offers the best hope for our fatherland on many fronts. It had never been that good for our democracy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFirstly, this is the first in the history of our democracy that we are having a presidential candidate that has served as a senator and a two-term governor.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c He is a genuine core democrat that built his party from the ground, starting as a lone opposition party that controlled only Lagos at the time into a national brand.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is no mean achievement, it takes an uncommon visionary to accomplish this,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>He added that Tinubu\u2019s running mate, Kashim Shettima, was also a two-term governor, saying that Sen. Oluremi, Tinubu\u2019s wife, had potential that would make her husband succeed if he could be elected as president.<\/p>\n<p>The APC chieftain said The Renewed Hope manifesto of the presidential candidate offered the best revolutionary socio-political and economic development pathway out of Nigeria\u2019s current challenges if implemented across board.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur revenue challenges will become a thing of the past and our youths can be meaningfully engaged and their bursting energies and creativities can be turned into a source of income generation for themselves and the nation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd the major challenge confronting the nation is insecurity and with a new robust approach embedded in the Renewed Hope manifesto, such will become a thing of the past if Asiwaju emerges victorious and the manifesto implemented,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n<p>Oshodi prayed that Tinubu would emerge as a winner in the 2023 presidential election so that he could build on a lot of achievements of the outgoing President Muhammadu Buhari-led administration, especially on infrastructure.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/nigeria\">Nigeria<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Nigeria.
