A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress in Sokoto State, Hajiya Munawwarah Yazid, says the party’s presidential candidate for the 2023 general election, Bola Tinubu, will be a game changer for Nigeria.
Yazid told the News Agency of Nigeria in Sokoto on Saturday that the combination of Tinubu and his running mate, Senator Kashim Shettima, is a good omen for Nigeria, adding that the duo will replicate their achievements in Lagos and Borno states where they were former governors.
“Tinubu is an achiever just as he is a tested and trusted accomplished technocrat. He will certainly change the narrative in the country if elected,” she said.
“The duo are tangible achievers in their own ways. Both were former governors and former senators.
“The duo will improve the economy of the country, sustain anti corruption fight and ensure the security of lives and properties of Nigerians.”
Meanwhile, Yazid promised to mobilise over 20,000 votes for the APC in the forthcoming general poll.
She said, “I will do this under my group, Zuhaf Strategic Alliance, and so far, I have facilitated the defection of over 13,000 members of other political parties into the APC.
“These new entrants into the APC were from 14 out of the 23 local government areas of the state and we are still counting.”
Yazid also said the APC’s governorship candidate, Alhaji Ahmed Aliyu, and his running mate, Alhaji Idris Gobir, would also revamp Sokoto State if elected.
“They will replicate the sterling achievements of the former governor of the state, Sen. Aliyu Wamakko, in terms of infrastructural development and welfare of the people,” she said.
