The Deputy National Publicity Secretary of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Duro Meseko, has called upon Nigerians to place their trust in President Bola Tinubu’s ability to revitalize the nation’s social and economic prospects.
Speaking during an interactive session with journalists in Lokoja on Monday, Meseko assured the public that they could rely on President Tinubu to fulfill his electoral commitments. He lauded Tinubu as a seasoned politician, successful businessman, and accomplished public administrator. He pointed to Tinubu’s previous tenure as Lagos Governor and his initial 100 days in office as Nigeria’s President as evidence of his capabilities.
“When you discuss visionary leadership, it’s him you’re talking about. In just a little over 100 days in office, observe what he has achieved. Even his harshest critics acknowledge his seriousness,” Meseko stated.
He also acknowledged the challenges posed by the lingering COVID-19 crisis, noting that some nations were still grappling with its aftermath. Meseko commended former President Buhari’s efforts in managing the crisis in a way that prevented a total economic recession. He emphasized that Nigerians should anticipate rapid economic growth and development under President Tinubu’s leadership, along with the protection of their rights. He also highlighted improvements in critical sectors such as healthcare, education, and power infrastructure, envisioning a rejuvenated Nigeria under President Tinubu.
Meseko, who recently assumed his role as a member of the APC National Working Committee, praised the party’s National Chairman, Abdullahi Ganduje, describing him as a committed democrat who prioritizes adhering to the right procedures. He expressed optimism that past internal party conflicts and associated legal disputes would soon become history under Ganduje’s leadership in the new NWC.
“I’ve been here for only about three weeks now since our inauguration, and I’ve witnessed the leadership of the party, especially the National Chairman. He is a true democrat, an attentive leader, and a fatherly figure. He possesses exceptional wisdom, believes in the rule of law, and is dedicated to doing things the right way. I am confident that it marks a new era for the party,” Meseko affirmed.
