Saliu Adetunji, the Olubadan of Ibadan, says Bola Tinubu, a
chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) will make a good president.
Although Tinubu is yet to express his interest in running
for the highest office in the land, NAN reports that the monarch says he will
support him if he chooses to throw his hat in the ring.
The Olubadan was said to have expressed his support while
receiving members of the Tinubu Vanguard in Ibadan, Oyo state capital, on
Saturday.
Johnny Benjamin, director-general of Tinubu Vanguard, made the development known in a statement.
According to the statement, Olubadan described Tinubu as a
“good man”, adding that he would consolidate on the progressive agenda of the
APC and propel Nigeria to the path of economic prosperity and sustainable
development.
“Tinubu is a good man and I will do everything within my
power to support his candidacy for the 2023 presidential poll,” he was quoted
as saying.
The director-general of Tinubu Vanguard said the members of
the group visited the monarch to make him aware of their intention to deliver a
Tinubu presidency in 2023 and to seek his blessing.
Benjamin said the group is committed to ensuring that the
Tinubu presidential mandate is actualised.
