A group known as “the natives” has hailed president Bola Tinubu over his swift action, engagements and coordination on very thorny issues of the country, saying “Nigerians have been waiting for a president like him.”
The group in a world press conference on Thursday in Abuja, thanked the president for giving Nigerians the sense that hope is truly around the corner.
Hon. Olalekan Smart Edwards,
supreme leader of natives remarked that, Nigeria as a country deserves the best when it comes to leadership and good governance from any administration.
“President Bola Ahmed TINUBU, who told the world that we are all Nigerians and that he would govern with prejudice towards none and compassion towards all, has brought to bear his tested ability to strike the right cord on issues that bedeviled our nation for years, sending the right signal to security chiefs,putting together a formidable team to engage labor on fuel Subsidy, appropriately identifying his administration as Pro people via an open door policy.
“Nigerians have been waiting for a President like you, your swift action, engagements and coordination on very thorny issues, give us the sense that hope is truly here.
“We are therefore emboldened to see and ensure that a robust, inclusive , a creative and harmonious National Assembly is promoted for executive and legislative relationship”
“There is a Partner in TINUBU, hence we wish after due consideration of the fundamental issues of national interest, legacies and visionary leadership, it has become imperative, instructive, equitable that a competent, pragmatic and effective leader be supported and elected the Senate President of the 10th National Assembly”
Speaking further on the National Assembly’s tussle, Edward called on all senators across party lines to key into the wisdom of the president to promote balance, encourage and ensure inclusion, national unity, love for country, to create harmony that would endear the parliament to the Nigerian people.
“Leadership in the 10th National Assembly must translate to Jobs, Infrastructure , Economic Prosperity, Educational Invested, rural development, rule of law and the upliftment of a people, a character and testament which Sen AKPABIO posses in full dose”
“Nigeria is a secular state and the Senator Godswill Akpabio/ Barau Ticket represents the consideration of the mood of the country, an evidence of healing rather than the braggadocios display of strength or the coronation of religious dominance.
“We say No to Sen. Yari”s Ambition and in the name of country , we appeal to him in the name of our dear country to please shelve this ambition for all and become the hero.”
