Former Rivers South East Senator, Magnus Abe, has said
Nigeria needs the National leader of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Bola
Tinubu, as president in 2023.
According to Abe, the country needs a man like Tinubu who “likes
and understands money”.
He was reacting to the declaration of interest by the APC
leader to contest for president.
Senator Abe made the comment during a media parley in Port
Harcourt on Tuesday.
The former lawmaker insisted that he remains a member and
leader of the APC in Rivers State despite not taking part in the membership
registration and revalidation of exercise of the party.
He recalled that he had raised some issues during the
exercise leading to the setting up of a committee by the national leadership of
the party which is yet to resolve the issues.
In his words; “The committee insisted that the revalidation
exercise be carried out and everybody should be included, that is the position
of the party.
“Now, that has not been done and because that has not been
done the party issued a statement that the five states including Rivers State,
that those who had not done the revalidation should take part even in the
congresses.”
Senator Abe also noted that he was still consulting on his
next political move ahead of the 2023 elections, adding that when that is done,
he will make his decision known to the public.
He, however, vowed that the 2023 will not be the same as
2015 and 2019, stressing that things must be done differently for APC to come
out victorious in the election.
