I Won’t Retire From Politics Until I Become Nigerian President — Tinubu

Bola Ahmed Tinubu, a presidential candidate for the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), has stated that he will not leave partisan politics until he is elected President of Nigeria.

Tinubu made the announcement on Tuesday in Makurdi, the capital of Benue State, while canvassing for votes from the party’s delegates.

If elected, the APC National Leader claimed he will bring his expertise as governor of Lagos State from 1999 to 2007 to bear on the country’s governance.

“I won’t retire from politics until I am the president of Nigeria. I will bring the experience of my leadership in Lagos state as a Governor to bare on my leadership style in Nigeria,” he said.
 
“Youths of Benue, be determined to get your PVCs (Permanent Voter Cards) revalidated. I’m with you and my other colleagues here are with you as well as many others who are not here are with you to ensure your posterity and the hope of a united prosperous Nigeria is yours.
 
“So, we are of age and if you want us to retire soon but I won’t retire until I become president of Nigeria.”
 
The former Lagos state governor insisted that he is the best man for the job and will surely win the presidential election irrespective of who becomes the candidate of the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
