The Northern part of Nigeria will ensure that Bola Tinubu is re-elected as president in 2027, the governor of Nasarawa State, Abdullahi Sule has said.
Sule on Saturday said that the support for Tinubu in the North is unwavering.
He also stated that the decision and action that will emerge from the North during the 2027 election would not depend on the opinion of a minority beclouded by their personal interests.
The governor added that supporting President Tinubu’s return to office would signify the fulfilment of the promise made by the Northern region before the 2023 presidential elections.
Sule said, “Some politicians will always create confusion if they fail to get what they want or achieve their targets.
“As a junior governor then, some of the older governors told us that the best person for the presidency was Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
“They told us Tinubu can transform Nigeria the same way he made Lagos an epicentre of business and commerce,” he said.
While noting that the task of supporting Tinubu for the presidency at the time was difficult, Sule said the Northern leaders worked hard to deliver the expected result.
“Today, the same people, because they couldn’t get what they were looking for, are criticising Tinubu; that he is the worst President Nigeria has ever produced.
“Well, whether he is the good, the bad or the ugly, by the grace of God, we are bringing back Bola Ahmed Tinubu to continue as president of Nigeria,” the governor added.
