The National Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, yesterday revealed the reason the leadership of the party preferred Senate Leader Ibrahim Lawan to other contestants in leading the Senate.

He explained that the senator is a great example of a very consistent and intellectually resourceful leader the country needs. He lamented that those he referred to as political prostitutes denied him of the opportunity to serve Nigeria in that capacity because of their selfish interest.

Tinubu who was giving a goodwill message at the Abiola Ajimobi Roundtable held in Ibadan, yesterday, lauded the Senate Leader for staying consistent in spite of what happened; stressing that it was one of the qualities that stand him out.

At the Roundtable with the theme: ‘The Imperative of Building Institutions for Lasting Legacies’ , the former Lagos State Governor said: “Senator Lawan, thank you very much. It will come from you as the institution. You are a great example of a very consistent and intellectually resourceful leader that we have in this country. We saw in him, these leadership traits and the qualities we wanted in the Senate President. We know you are qualified and competent to be, that you would have led the most important arm of our government more effectively but the political prostitutes and their robbers and their collaborators denied you of it because of selfishness and selfish aggrandisement. But instead of fleeing, you remained constant and consistent, seeing this institution as a place for truly lawmaking that we the people and you have remained consistent and constant ever since on a progressive stand. Thank you.”

While commending Governor Ajimobi for changing the fortunes of the state in the last seven years, Tinubu said his success would have been incomplete without a worthy successor. He hailed his choice of Adebayo Adelabu, who he believes would build on his exploits.

His words: “To the discussants, we have facilitated this important topic, it is all about you as a thinker and a doer and that is what Nigerians need all over – thinking and doing. The capacity to pick the right kind of people to think out the need for our society; that institution that you represent, translate it to vision and be able to do it. Unless that you have the rare combination of thinking and doing you cannot succeed as a leader and that is what you have done for Oyo State.

Ok

Sen. Ahmed Lawan, the only nigerian politician that has been in dae national assembly since dae begining of dae 4th republic without any corruption case against him.

Senator Ahmed Lawan is one of the honest politicians in Nigerian.


Patiently waiting for 2019 so that he can be enthroned as the Senate president of federal republic of Nigeria.

While PMB is still the Commander in Chief.


Then 2023 we will handover to the SW to do their 8 years while the VP slot will go to El Rufai, aftwards the SW will handover back to the North come 2031.


It will keep going in circles till our neighbours get sense and learn how to play politics.

this lawan is the one that proposed the humongous money they are chopping in the national assembly.
the foolish thief should vomit all the committee money he has been looting there with nothing to show for it.

yes, that is how it will go, but not lawan.
he is a big thief.

Ahmed Lawan's only qualification is that he would have been Tinubu's rubber stamp at the national Assembly.

But the god of Nigeria said no to our being sold.

Tufiakwa!

Boom!
But who else know this is the simple truth?

But you're too honest for my liking

Somebody would just sit somewhere and open his dustbin mouth for 200m people...

If wishes were horses..

MrAJQ:


Boom!
But who else know this is the simple truth?

But you're too honest for my liking

You guys learnt nothing from the last elections of principal officials of the NASS.I pity you guys

Another stooge...God forbid

No reason other than you saw a puppet in him.

Tired of APC news

Why APC or why Tinubu?

You want him there as a bubu slave so he can be doing your bids without thorough check...

Once again. That is not an achievement. That is what it should be. Achievements should be what he has done to move Nigeria forward and out of poverty to sustainable development. I guess the next person will do that since it appears these fellows are stuck on gear one.

In this season of shopping blues I will say both the staff that steals and the unproductive staff that stagnates my business will be sacked. Can't afford both.

Tinubu is a typical afonja type of yoruba man. He will kiss any arse to further his agenda.

Imagine describing Lawan as consistent. Consistent in what sense ? That he pushes the northern agenda to the exclusion of other ethicities ? That he defends the abysmally incompetent and corrupt Buhari regime ?

God. Please give power to Atiku and Obi and deliver us from these people.

Amin.

Afonja if at all you r one. The reason is that a real Afonja is timid, sly and coward that he will never be bold to say his plans.
However, if this is coming from an Afonja the president of Nigeria in 2023 will come from any other part of Nigeria but Afonja land.
If your APC attempts to allow u with their ticket, the PDP will zone their ticket back to North.
PDP will adopt the principle of necessity. You can't share what you do not have .
