While addressing the crowd, the Osun state governor, remarked that “walk for Tinubu is a very fortunate one because we will love to testify to its goodness. Tinubu will become the president of this nation because God’s mouth has proclaimed it.
“Tinubu popularity is well grounded in Osun state. He has been with us in Osun since 1999, and he contributed heavily to the emergence of progressive victory in this state.
“Nigerians should not leave this country for those that will experiment with it through governance, we must vote for the person who is experienced. He has changed Lagos state.
“Tinubu won’t only solve the state problem but he will proffer solutions to them by presenting a framework to address them.
“Other candidates are lamenting over insecurity without telling us how they will end it but Asiwaju when he unveiled his manifesto, it is clear that he will address the use of technology to solve the problem of insecurity.”
