All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, has continued to get massive endorsements across the country.

They include the major supporters and kinsmen of former President Goodluck Jonathan who declared their support for the APC presidential candidate at the weekend.

Members of the support group, under the auspices of Citizens Network for Peace and Development in Nigeria (CNPDN), told reporters in Abuja that since Dr. Jonathan did not join the 2023 presidential race, despite their persistent prodding, the right thing to do was to support Asiwaju Tinubu.

They described the former Lagos State governor as the only candidate with solid structures and capacity to win the election, besides being a Southerner.

The coalition’s National Secretary Francis Okereke Wainwei, from Bayelsa State, told reporters that as patriotic citizens, members of the coalition could not refrain from participating in the nation’s electoral process. Wainwei said: “As patriotic citizens, under the auspices of the Citizens Network For Peace and Development in Nigeria, we took it up as a burning need for us to be actively involved in the process leading to the election of Nigeria’s next president, who shall be taking over from President Muhammadu Buhari next year.
