Nasarawa State Governor, Abdullahi Sule has called on the North and Nigerians to be patient and support the re-election of President Bola Tinubu in 2027.
Speaking at the 2025 Nzeh Mada Festival in Akwanga, Akwanga Local Government Area of the state yesterday, Sule said whether Tinubu is good, bad or ugly, the former Lagos State governor will continue as president of Nigeria for eight years.
According to him, the North made a firm commitment that having been in the presidency for eight years, the South should have its turn to rule Nigeria.
Sule, who is also the Chairman, North Central Governors Forum, 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 epicenter of business and commerce.
“It was a challenging period but we worked hard to bring Tinubu into office.
“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.”;
He added, “So, we cannot do the contrary. We cannot say something today and say another tomorrow.
“So, we have to be patient and support the President to do his eight years in office.”;
Meanwhile, Tinubu is currently in France, where he is observing a two weeks working vacation.
The Nigeria leader is expected to be back in the country after the Easter celebration.
