Senator Dayo Adeyeye, Chairman, South West Agenda, SWAGA, for Bola Tinubu, Kayode Alabi, Deputy Governor, Kwara State, standing in for his principal, the governor, and many others in Ilorin on Friday rallied support for the candidacy of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress (APC), presidential candidate, stating, separately, that the former governor of Lagos can only be too fitting to succeed President Muhammadu Buhari.
Adeyeye, on his part believes that challenges of the current debt overhang on Nigeria and other challenges can only call for extraordinary leadership personified by Tinubu, the APC presidential candidate.
Under the ruling party, the national debt owed has swelled to N77 trillion.
By implication and by per capita, each Nigerian, put at about 210 million, may have to pay at least N350, 000 each to creditors to offset the debt.
But Adeyeye insists that such challenges amount to nothing for an extraordinary leader of which Tinubu ranks as one.
Speaking in Ilorin at a special prayer organised by SWAGA in collaboration with other support groups, Tinubu’s antecedents have demonstrated that he is a man born to take up challenges.
“It is always in times of difficulty that we need a great leader who can turn things around. This is the time when you need Asiwaju as president.
“When things are easy and rosy, you don’t need that much a fantastic leader."
