Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>President Muhammadu Buhari on Saturday assured the All Progressives Congress, APC, party supporters that he will continue to campaign for Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu as the \u2018next president of Nigeria.\u2019<\/p>\n

According to a statement by Garba Shehu, Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity to the President, Buhari spoke before a mammoth crowd at the presidential campaign rally in Lafia square, where he endorsed Tinubu and Shettima\u2019s candidature and the second-term bid of Governor Abdullahi Sule of Nasarawa State.<\/p>\n

He thanked party supporters for defying the hot weather and standing in the sun for hours to express their support for the party\u2019s flag bearers in the forthcoming presidential and gubernatorial elections.<\/p>\n

\u2018\u2018I congratulate and assure you that God willing, we are going to win through and through. As Tinubu said in his speech, I have known him for more than 20 years ago, and I will continue to campaign for Bola Ahmed Tinubu. He is a committed Nigerian, and I believe he will give his best to Nigeria.<\/p>\n

\u2018\u2018Also vote for Abdullahi Sule for a second and final term as governor,\u2019\u2019 he said.<\/p>\n

The APC presidential candidate thanked the President for being the \u2018\u2018poster boy\u2019\u2019 of his campaign, fighting and working hard for the survival of Nigeria.<\/p>\n

\u2018\u2018Nigeria is surviving as a nation. Because of constitutional democracy, we would have asked you to continue, but you said no, you are going back to Daura, your hometown,\u2019\u2019 he said.<\/p>\n

Tinubu also used the occasion to chide those insinuating that he is having a frosty relationship with the President, saying:<\/p>\n

\u2018\u2018Those who think there are cracks in our friendship and relationship would continue to be disappointed and have their short times joy limited. Ours is not about the individual but about nation building, honesty, integrity and character,\u2019\u2019 he said.<\/p>\n

The APC presidential candidate, who compared President Buhari to great and courageous leaders like Abraham Lincoln, praised him for remaining focused in the midst of distractions.<\/p>\n

He promised that under his presidency, Nigeria would recover from all challenges because of the courage and resilience of its citizens.<\/p>\n

Tinubu added that his administration would prioritize agriculture, build the nation\u2019s mineral resources and create wealth for Nigerians.<\/p>\n

\u2018\u2018We will work hard. We promise you that your children and grandchildren will have no regret about this nation and ourselves,\u2019\u2019 he said.<\/p>\n
