An ally of the President Muhammadu Buhari, Senator Mohammed Saleh, and some supporters of former Lagos State Governor, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, under the aegis of The Disciples of Jagaban, on Saturday began mobilising support for Tinubu’s rumoured presidential ambition.
They also sensitised voters in the north to the need to register and vote in 2023.
Saleh, a retired Major General, represented Kaduna Central Senatorial District between 2011 and 2015 on the platform of the defunct Congress for Progressive Change at the National Assembly.
Politicians from the North who converged on Kaduna for the event included Major General Hassan Usman,(retd.), Mr Muhammad Namadi, Alhaji Dangulguli, Chairman, Kaduna chapter of Arewa Consultative Forum and Alhaji Lawal Meyere.
Speaking at the event, the national coordinator of the group, Abdulhakeem Adegoke, said Tinubu, who is the National Leader of the ruling All Progressives Congress, had the capacity to rescue Nigerians from the current suffering.
He stated, “Presently, the DOJ remains the first and the most widely accepted political institution for Tinubu’s 2023 presidential ambition. We, however, appreciate all other groups that come after us because we cannot do it alone, especially with the deluge of resistance and opposition towards our principal.
“We know his capacity to change the scenario; his capacity to change things from negative to positive. He has done it in Lagos State.”
