Tinubu campaigns in Bayelsa, to meet Ijaw monarchs
The All Progressives Congress (APC) says its presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu, would Thursday make a campaign stop in Bayelsa, where he would meet with traditional rulers.
Doifie Buokoribofie, the party’s publicity secretary, said this in a statement he issued.
“On arrival in the state, Tinubu, his running mate, Senator Kashim Shettima, and the entire team would begin the campaign visit with a courtesy call on the Bayelsa State Traditional Rulers Council.”
“From there, they would proceed to the Oxbow Lake venue of the rally, where Tinubu and other leaders of the party would address the Bayelsa public on APC’s 2023 agenda for the country,” he said.
The statement adds that “APC in Bayelsa State has since intensified our mobilisation drive to sensitise our people on the urgency of joining this winning train captained by Tinubu. “The result has been tremendous and, God willing, we will be victorious.”
On his part, Timipre Sylva, who is the minister of state for petroleum and the state coordinator of the Tinubu/Shettima 2023 APC Presidential Campaign Council, said, “The prize we expect at the end of the day is victory in next year’s presidential election, nothing less.By God’s grace, we will win.”
