ACTION Congress of Nigeria (ACN) National leader Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu yesterday spoke of his dream for democracy when issues and ideas will dominate politics.

He was reflecting on the preparation ahead of the National Convention of the Democratic which opened yesterday in Chalotte, North Carolina, United States (U.S.).

Tinubu said there is much to be learnt from the American politics before Nigeria can get on track for the journey to true and ideal democratic culture.

There was security lock down in Charlotte, the city hosting the convention .

A tight security cordon was thrown around the roads leading to the Time Warner Convention Grounds.

Over 30 security screening and sweeping points were mounted.

It was gathered that over 1,000 officers in mufti, drawn from around the country were drafted.

More than 4, 000 Police and Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) agents were in place.

The city looked impregnable. Access to the major hotels around the convention centre was almost impossible.

Guests must be cleared first by the security desk at the hotel and from the convention list.

[b]Tinubu arrived in Charlotte on Monday in the company of Ekiti State Governor Kayode Fayemi, Lagos Speaker Adeyemi Ikuforiji and former Lagos Commissioner for Information and Strategy Dele Alake for the convention. [/b]The group, whose names have been verified on the VIP list, will be joined by others to hear President Barack Obama’s wife Michelle, who delivered her speech.

Her speech set the tone for the convention.

President Obama will give his acceptance speech tomorrow night.
