The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Rivers State has assured that its candidate, Bola Ahmed Tinubu will win the upcoming presidential election slated to hold on February 25, 2023.
The party, which said that it would mobilise over 50,000 supporters to cheer their presidential candidate, assured that Tinubu will win all votes in Rivers State.
Speaking after inspecting the approved Gowon Stadium, the venue for the rally on Monday, a member of the Presidential Campaign Council (PCC), Tony Okocha, expressed satisfaction with the ongoing work at the venue, stating that the PCC was working ahead to ensure the success of the event.
According to him, “This is the approved venue for the Presidential Campaign of the APC, which will be taking place on the 15th of February. The people here are members of the PCC and ICC, and people that were co-opted from the party because of their competencies to be part of what we are doing.
“We have come here to inspect the facility and the works going on. One of the reasons we came is to assure and reassure our presidential candidate that Rivers State is upbeat. We are ready for him on the 15th.
“We want to assure the candidate, the party, PCC, and national that we are upbeat. Even though nothing has been advanced to us, we have taken the bull by the horns.”
He assured the people that Rivers would be the first to turn in results in favour of Tinubu, noting that nobody would sabotage what the party was doing to ensure the victory of its candidate.
“As a people, we have assured ourselves that nobody will sabotage what the APC will be doing in Rivers State. These young men you are seeing, we have put resources together to see how much we can put in place and to mobilise a minimum of 50,000 attendees to this venue.
“To the best of my knowledge, we are member of PCC and ICC, we are not splintering. We had shown you. We are not in contention with anybody. We are united.
“Tinubu will win convincingly and overwhelmingly in Nigeria and Rivers State. If care is not taken Rivers State will be turning in the first result,” Okocha added.
