The National Leader of All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, says the country need a focused and determined leader like President Muhammadu Buhari to gradually re-engineer the economy for the benefit of all.

Tinubu who noted that Buhari is the foundation for re-engineering and reinvigorating Nigeria’s economy for a better future made the remark in Lagos on Wednesday during the Eid-el-Kabir celebration

The APC leader reiterated that a strong foundation mattered in nation building.

He said that building such foundation required patience, perseverance and commitment as it often presented difficulties for the people.

” Economic development and the future of the youth are crucial in the growth of any nation and we are taking care of that.

”You have to re-grow the economy, re-engineer it from bottom-up, during that process, it is always very difficult for ordinary people.

“They bear the brunt of the economic difficulties because they are in the lower cadre of the society.

”You can only use and depend on what you have and if you manage to use resources carefully, yes, you end up enjoying a multiple development in the country and that is why I always emphasise that foundation matters.

”Foundation is crucially important. I have listened to the people. I have been in contact with them at the grassroots.

”Even this house is not spared too, from demands from the poor and the needy, but without re-growing the economy, re-tooling, re-engineering the economy, we will not have anything.

”We ate the seed of growth for breakfast. Therefore, there is nothing for lunch or dinner. Nothing to harvest, that is what we talk about looters.

”But it will not take a magical touch to bring it to reality, It takes patience and perseverance. Three years is not enough time to for retouching, redevelopment and re-engineering the country.

”There is a lot of hope, there is a lot of expectation, but when the treasury was empty, when the salaries were outstanding, when the quality of life is low, what will you do?

”We have oil, they didn’t save money and we have not diversified the economy. We have eaten our dinner for breakfast, nothing in the kitchen.

“There is no magic about it. It takes dedication, commitment and perseverance.

“Yes, we might not be communicating effectively with the people but we are working to make things better, ” he said.

”Nigerians adopted democracy, we are going to live through this democratic government.

”We need a … President Buhari, to retool and re-engineer, that is what he is doing in the economy and he is doing it gradually, otherwise we don’t want it to fall apart again.

”Continuity, perseverance, and endurance, those are what we need. Our determination is progress for the country and for the people. We can’t go back.

”I am very proud of what I have done in Lagos to be where it is. We were meticulous, dedicated and focused and we lifted the spirits of our people and that is why it is important for Nigerians to be focused now, ” he said.

Tinubu urged Nigerians to make sacrifices, endure, tolerate and forgive one another in the spirit of Eid-el-Kabir celebration.

”When you pray for forgiveness, you must be able to give forgiveness if you think you deserve forgiveness.

”Can you ask God to give you what you cannot give to another fellow human being? That is simple, “Tinubu said.

WTF!!! is this legend of corruption saying??...

The only reason why we Nigerians need Buhari is because he's old enough to be our father (if not our grandfather or great grandfather) and old enough to direct the affairs of our nation

Nigeria is a country predominantly dominated by youths

More than 65% of our overall population are below the age of 45

We need old people like Buhari to always put us in check and deal with us when we are wrong

I'm happy that Buhari have been doing an excellent job by always putting us where we belong to

Those that proved stubborn he killed

Those that tried to fight back, he took their ancestry lands

Hmm... Indeed, Buhari is a good man with a bad intention

Zombie think say I dey support dem

Me just dey use reverse psychology for dem

...is this not the man who officially introduced thugs into Lagos ?

You way saraki don open your azz

Yes Jagaban, Most Importantly Buhari Has To Ensure That Our Stolen Yams Are Completely Recovered. With Guilty PDthieves Politicians Like Obj, Jonathan, Fani Kayode, Patience Jonathan, Diezanni Alisson, Oliseh Metuh, Fayose And Others Incarcerated In Kuje Prison.

We will call Saraki the cabal slayer for this one!

The article reeks of saraki's statement on tinubu's quote "even buhari on a stretcher i would support him for my 2023 presidential ambition"

Saraki has belled the cat..

what's the best insult to give to this man?...the one I know is that he has mouth odour but he recently said it is normal for the tribe he comes from,for first sons in the family to have mouth odour...

The only person that needs Buhari and his idiotic pig,is Tinubu. Tinubu needs Buhari to win so that he can have a chance in 2023. Tinubu is a bloody hypocrite,a snake n a conniving bitcch

We Nigerians don't need a president that doesn't stand by what he says.
We Nigerians doesn't need a president that have people in his cabinet that authoritatively breaks the Constitution eg Mrs. Adeosun.

2016 national budget N9.12 TRILLION
more than 20 trillion , but yes nothing to show

AND intead of people like tinubu
to tender apology to nigerians, they are busy asking us for another 4 years , to wast more nigerian money

Catholic churches hold "Mass of forgiveness" after priest sex abuse report

We don't need leader who doesn't have gut...we need someone who can communicate with the people directly,Trump is a very good example and you can see how developed the country his...you want him to come back and be using tax payers money as medical tourism...tinubu I can see you are joking,just because of what you want to achieve in 2023,you want to destroy the dreams of many who put hope in this government....

Anyways check my siggy to get your Chinese yuan cheaply...

Buhari who doesn't have waec cert will re-engineer the economy of 180m people?

God forbid!

(the word engineer means: to use your training and skills to design, build and construct a working device/ware)

Does Buhari have the training/skills to engineer anything? The answer is capital no.

Look at Trump growing a developed economy at 4.1% GDP growth, Unemployment rate lowest in 50years, Massive investments flowing into US, Military being rebuilt...

all this is happening because he graduated from Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, US (BA Economics); A successful real estate magnate behind the Trump brand.


Tinubu, we all know your game plan. You want to rule Nigeria in 2023. God forbid!

Fvuck you Tinubu. Na only you need am for your pocket and future political ambition

Typical Yoruba coward

Thieefnubuu shut up your rotten ewedufied dentition.

We know this Ur fake support to the tyrant is because of Ur futile future ambition. Mumu! Sycophant!

Nonsense

Nigerians dont need him, its sycofants like you Tinubu that needs him, cos you intend to use him to achieve your selfish aim.

It's statements like these that make me ponder on who actually speaks when most of our politicians speak: is it truly them that's speaking or something extremely stupid in them that speaks?

Na wa o
