A group, Yoruba Youth Congress (YYC), yesterday described the All Progressives Congress (APC) National Leader, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu as a living hero of democracy, stating that he was majorly responsible for making the change desired by the people possible.
The group also warned against any attempt to drag the name of the former Lagos state governor in the mud over political sentiments.
In a statement signed by the National President Prince Dapo Adepoju, the group said, Nigerians should appreciate Tinubu for the role he played in the 2015 presidential election and the struggle for sustenance of democracy in the country.
“Tinubu deserved to be commended for making it possible for the opposition to have a voice in the affairs of the country for the first time since independence.
We totally condemn a situation where those who put Nigeria into an abyss of debt and economic depression are now ganging up again to destabilise the country.
“We therefore, urge the citizenry to rally around the present APC government for ample benefits.
While we are confident that President Buhari’s administration would not disappoint the masses, we want to use this opportunity to enjoin him to be fair in sharing of political offices.
He should also be wary of the people who may be trying to pitch him against Asiwaju Tinubu for the purpose of achieving their selfish interest,” the group said.
