The All Progressives Congress has appealed to Nigerians to
remain steadfast and support the party and its presidential candidate, Asiwaju
Bola Tinubu, in the face of the current hardship in the country as a result of
scarcity of new naira notes
The party expressed assurance that the looming darkness
facing the country would soon give way to a new dawn if Tinubu is elected the
president in Saturday’s presidential poll.
Speaking in Akure, the Ondo State capital, the National Vice
Chairman (South-West) of the party, Mr Issac Kekemeke, urged Nigerians to have
it in mind that “the darkest part of the night is just before the dawn.”
According to him, the inability to access money, non-availability of petroleum products and other challenges are temporary, and would soon fade out. He pointed out that Tinubu had engaged the electorate like no one else had done, moving from one place to another with a programme which practically addresses current challenges facing the Nigerian people.
He said, “Our party remains grateful to the Nigeria people
who have trooped out en masse to embrace Bola Ahmed Tinunu everywhere he went
for campaign in spite of the temporary difficulties that stare all of us in the
face.
“APC is grateful, and its presidential candidate, Bola
Tinubu, is grateful. In spite of the man-made challenges, Nigerians still
embrace our party and candidate wherever he goes.
“However, we are
appealing to Nigerians and the electorate to remain steadfast in their support
for Asiwaju. In a short time, the looming darkness will surely give way to a
new dawn.
“We are sure of this because the man-made challenges can
signify only one thing, that it will soon be a new day break with Asiwaju Bola
Tinubu at the helm of affairs.”
Kekemeke commended the political sagacity of Tinubu and the
APC governors for speaking against the Federal Government and taking it to
court over its “anti-people monetary policy” in spite of the fact the
government is controlled by their party.
Kekemeke called the relevant authorities to support the
Independent National Electoral Commission on logistics for it to conduct a
free, fair and credible election.
“This election is about Nigeria and the South-West in
particular, and I know that we in the South-West are very educated and
independent-minded. But in a situation where yours is the best, where yours has
the best programme, where yours is embraced by others, it makes no sense to
reject yours because you want to show that you are educated or independent-minded,”
he added.
