Presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, has expressed confidence in Nigerians voting for him in the 2023 election.

Tinubu explained that he was ready to lead the country because of his lifetime dedication to Nigeria.

The former governor of Lagos State spoke, yesterday, at the Chatham House, London, in a lecture titled: ‘Nigeria’s 2023 elections: In conversation with Tinubu.’

As it was with the then APC presidential candidate, Muhammadu Buhari, in 2015, Tinubu was the star attraction as the vicinity of Chatham House witnessed unusual foot traffic.

Speaking for about half an hour on his readiness and agenda for Nigeria at the Royal Institute of International Affairs, aka Chatham House, he said the election is specifically significant for Nigeria, as it will be holding almost 24 years after the current democratic dispensation began in May 1999.

He praised his party, noting that the APC government has distinguished itself in managing credible elections.

The APC candidate expressed confidence in the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and was of the view that “technology will help INEC deliver a credible election.”

Jagaban, as he is fondly called, vowed to give loans to students in various institutions, if elected president, noting that he will also reform the Almajiri system in the North.

The APC presidential candidate equally promised to build more schools and employ/train teachers in the country.

On health, Tinubu said he would convert brain drain to brain gain. He noted that his administration would manufacture drugs and stop importation of drugs in Nigeria.

While clarifying his age/identity imbroglio, Tinubu said he was born on March 29, 1952. He noted that his records are there for people to see.

“I was born March 29, 1952, that’s my family record. The record is there. The transcript is there. I’m not claiming another father. I’m a Tinubu proper. If they require a DNA, they should speak.

“There is one presidential candidate whose national identity is questionable, but I did not go into that. Chicago has attested that I graduated from the school.

“The institution recently sent me another certificate. Mobil Oil has attested that I worked with them and left as Treasurer. Make sure you are upright,” he said.
