Christopher Imumolen, the Accord Party’s factional National Chairman, stated on Friday that no candidate running for Nigeria’s presidency in 2027 has President Bola Tinubu’s leadership qualities.
Imumolen stated that President Tinubu had shown the bravery and tenacity needed to lead Nigeria during a press conference in Lagos where he formally declared his intention to withdraw from the 2027 presidential contest and support the President.
He said;
“We have so many candidates that will be vying for this election, but I sincerely doubt if any of them has the capacity. We have talked about Atiku and Obi, but I don’t think they have the capacity.”
“Imagine the removal of fuel subsidy. I believe many presidential candidates would have found it very difficult to do. In the last four years, I was one of those campaigning against President Tinubu, but I have seen his leadership style and the progress he has made.”
“I believe President Tinubu is uniquely positioned to provide a seamless transition between the founding generation of Nigeria’s democratic leadership and the emerging generation of transformational leaders.”
“President Tinubu has never denied that there are challenges. There is no way a country with Nigeria’s peculiar circumstances would not face difficulties.”
“There is no hidden agenda to this other than supporting a good cause and building a Nigeria that will better ourselves and our children.”
“At this critical stage of our national development, continuity in government, policy consistency, political stability and sustained reform are essential for attracting investment, creating jobs, strengthening institutions and building a prosperous nation for future generations.”
Let’s keep our eyes peeled and see if Imumolen’s prediction holds true. Only time will tell if Tinubu indeed proves to be the unmatched powerhouse in the 2027 presidential race. Stay tuned!
