The All Progressives Congress's presidential candidate is Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu (APC). Nigerians have been urged to support President Muhammadu Buhari in the upcoming presidential election.
Rumours that Mr Buhari and Mr Tinubu are in conflict with one another should be put to rest as a result of the public remark.
Recall how social media erupted last week when the APC presidential candidate claimed that the redesign of the Naira and the difficulty in obtaining it were attempts to harm his campaign. He made the statement during a rally in Ogun State.
The governors of Kano and Kaduna, Umar Ganduje and Nasir El-Rufai, respectively, stated in separate interviews days after the outburst that "elements" around the president are working against Mr Tinubu's goals.
However, on Saturday, Mr Buhari declared in Nasarawa that he wholeheartedly supports Mr Tinubu's presidential campaign.
“I am very pleased to be here today at this campaign for Bola Ahmed Tinubu as the next president of Nigeria and the governor of Nasarawa State for his second and final term. Thank you very much for defying the weather and standing in the sun for hours.
“I congratulate you and assure you that we are going to win through and through. Ahmed Bola Tinubu, I knew him more than 20 years ago—all the problems that we had, I mentioned earlier—there is no local government that I have not visited between 2003 and 2011. I visited all the states in 2019 when I was asking for a second term. I will continue to campaign for Bola Tinubu,” said the president.
