2023 Election Is Fight To Define Soul Of Nigeria – Says Tinubu

Amidst crowd disturbances, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the All Progressives Congress’s presidential candidate, launched his campaign on Tuesday in Jos, Plateau state.

Although the reason for the crowd disturbance remained unclear, footage captured visibly furious supporters hurling objects in the air.

During the flag-off, Tinubu stated that the election in 2023 will “decide our collective fate” and “define the soul of the nation.”

“Do we adhere to the ideals of broadly shared prosperity, competence, peace, justice and compassion toward all?” He asked.

“Or do we toss these ideals away, lashing ourselves to the divisive politics of the past or to those whose rantings show they cannot distinguish between fact and fantasy.”

President Muhammadu Buhari and other APC bigwigs were present at the campaign flag-off.

“I am deeply honoured for the presence of His Excellency, President Muhammadu Buhari,” Tinubu said.

“As campaign chairman, he promised to lead from the front. A man of his word, President Buhari has done what he said and more.”
