Regardless of having 22 States’ Executive Governors in the fold of the All Progressives’ Congress (APC) and continous ranting of Opposition, such as unsubstantiated allegation of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu being 86 year old without presentation of his Birth Certificate to logically back up this self – centered claim by a popular Entertainer and former President of Performing Musician Association of Nigeria (PMAN), Mr Tee Mac Omatsola, who openly confessed to his membership of the Opposition since 2015 on facebook and thoughtless mobilisation for the Press Conference by a few self serving Northern APC Christian Politicians who are individually interested in becoming Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu Presidential Running mate and claiming to be speaking for the entire Northern APC Christians, without having meaningful Political influence in their respective Local Governments and States as the APC Political Leaders, A formidable Rights’ Group, Coalition for A Better Nigeria, which is the Umbrella Body of Hundreds of Youth Organisations Within and Outside, founded in 2009 in Lagos State, hit the ground running this weekend by staging a Southeast strategic meeting of the Group in Aba, Abia State, today, Friday, 29th July, 2022.

The meeting which was held at a good location on St Michael Road, Aba, Abia State, was not only well attended by the notable Leaders of various Organisations across the States, but it was also adequately published, where it was unanimously agreed upon that backing the Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu Presidential ambition is the only way forward in 2023 for the suffering masses of this Country at this most challenging period in Nigeria, where insecurity, poor exchange rate, hyperinflation and unemployment are threatening daily, all of which could only be arrested by the team Leaders that are tested, trusted and reliable, as it had happened in the developed Countries.

They lauded the strategic thinking behind the joint ticket of the Two former Performing Governors of Lagos State, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, and his Borno State, Counterpart, Senator Kashim Shettima and described it as excellent because they all acknowledged that both have track records for the whole World to see at their individual States, South and North, unlike any other joint ticket of any Political Party.

They promised that mobilisation at both Local Government Areas and their individual wards will be deeper this time around because according to them, Eastern Region was fully ready for a meaningful transformation and they would only be Obedient to the All Progressives’ Congress (APC) in the fields of Campaign and the days of election.

Comrade Awa Bamiji is the National Coordinator of the Coalition for A Better Nigeria.
