All Progressive Congress, APC, on Tuesday flagged off its nationwide presidential campaign in Jos, Plateau state.
Speaking for the candidate of the party, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu reaffirmed his commitment to progressive good governance that will yield dividends for the masses.
The former Lagos Governor assured Nigerians that, unlike other parties either dwelling on a fruitless past or a tomorrow of fantasies, his administration hopes to chart the course of progress already started by the Buhari administration.
Addressing a large crowd of party faithful and supporters from all over the country, Tinubu said: “We hereby reaffirm our commitment to progressive good governance and to the fruits that such governance can bring to this nation.
“February 2023 is more than an election. It is a fight to define the soul of the nation and to determine our collective fate. Do we adhere to the ideals of broadly shared prosperity, competence, peace, justice and compassion toward all? Or do we toss these ideals away, lashing ourselves to the divisive politics of the past or to those whose rantings show they cannot distinguish between fact and fantasy.
“One party wants to take us back to a past that never should have been. Another party wants to take us to a past that resides only in its candidate’s head. Neither the old road nor the fantasy road is good enough.
“Instead, we forge the wiser path toward our approved destination an even better Nigeria. This is what the election is truly about.’’
He added: “We, the APC and the Tinubu/Shettima team, seek to make permanent a covenant of progressive good governance with the people.
