All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential hopeful Asiwaju Bola Tinubu yesterday appealed to aggrieved members of the party in Kwara State to sheathe their sword for amicable resolution of the crisis.
“We’ll settle the crisis. This is a family affair. We call on all aggrieved members to sheathe their sword and come back to the fold. We will settle the crisis as soon as possible,” he said.
The presidential aspirant, who was received by the governor, the deputy governor, the three APC senators in the state and state and federal lawmakers, among other personalities and party bigwigs across the country, had earlier visited the Emir of Ilorin, Dr. Ibrahim Sulu Gambari, in his palace.
On his presidential ambition, Asiwaju Tinubu appreciated the APC members in the state for endorsing him as their preferred choice, saying he would not disappoint them if elected as president.
He said: “We’re coming up with a lot of programmes, just make me your president. I know better how to do it. I know the way. I can navigate the way to prosperity for people and the nation. I can mentor your children for progressive future. It’s your turn to produce the president. We’ll succeed in this one. “You have shown me love; you’ve made up your mind to give me your support. I’m just to show appreciation for your support. You have responded to the governor when he asked you where you would stand and you chorused your endorsement. I’m just too thrilled. I appreciate your endorsement for my ambition.”
The presidential hopeful, who hailed Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq for leading a progressive government, promised to work with him to win second term ticket.
“The governor, a private person, recommitted himself and became a politician that came to rescue the state and put Kwara on the path of recovery. It’s sure that he will be returned. 4+4. We’ll continue to work together. Never will Kwara State slide back into the hands of termites. We know how to do it,” he said.
