Nigeria's Political Story Incomplete Without Tinubu — Lagos Speaker

The Speaker of the Lagos State House of Assembly, Mudashiru Obasa, has lauded the President-elect, Bola Tinubu, over his accomplishments in the nation's politics.

“For a man whose thought at all times is about salvaging the country from economic and social bondage, victory at the recent polls came at the right time.

“There is no way Nigeria’s political story can be written without Tinubu featuring prominently as a result of the positive roles he played before the current democratic dispensation and up till this moment.

“We believe that Almighty Allah has a reason for giving him to us in Nigeria, especially at this time of the nation’s journey.

“We have no doubt in his capacity to deliver. He has done it before.

“With a birthday that comes exactly two months to his oath-taking as president of Nigeria, it is not out of place to say Tinubu is a blessing to us, one sent to put things right and lay the foundation upon which modern Nigeria would be built.

“On behalf of my family, members, staff and management of the Lagos state house of assembly, I pray that Allah will continue to bless him”, Obasa said.
