Tinubu/ Shettima 2023: A Sincere Promise To Nigerians
Tinubu/ Shettima 2023: A Sincere Promise To Nigerians
By: James Bwala
In Gbaramatu Kingdom in Delta State, a summary of the ongoing Campaigns and actors leading their different Political parties, the APC Presidential Candidate, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu have spoken the minds of many Nigerians who are sincerely following the trends and events in the polity. This piece is centred on All Progressive Congress APC, Labour Party, LP and People’s Democratic Party, PDP. These are the parties dominating the space on the road to 2023. Only one man says he knows the road.
According to Tinubu, “There are three of us remaining in the run. One calls his name Atiku. How many times has he been running? And he is tired, tell him to go and sit down. The other one is full of statistics that even the Indian man cannot solve. He is always speaking arithmetic and warehouse economy. Are we going to eat statistics? That one I hate to call his name. All that Nigerians need is the man that knows the road….And Kabesi, that is me. “
Tinubu does not minced words and he is not in the game to please people who wants to hear curling English or theoritical explaination in a confused mathematical form. Indeed, Nigerians have come to a crossroad in its democratic journey having been walking to fine rest in the last 23 or 24 years from 1999. At this crossroads, a decision have to be taken and a wise one must. It is not about speaking English or mathematics but about where we are and the destination we are heading.
I did not know Tinubu that much, but I heard him speaking with sand-gravel voice as some Nigerians would like to say. However, a solution for those who truly are seeking one should not be about a person speech but if that speech has the needed answer. None of these other candidates are bold enough to tell Nigerians that they know the road to freedom like the man who knows the road and his golden boy had continued to say with much emphasis at any ground that opens up for the opportunity to say it.
I have listened to speaches made by the three gladiators in the past two weeks listening to them over and over. I indeed have a strong understanding of mathematics, but I sincerely cannot tell where Peter Obi begins or ends his arithmetics. His words are parabolically and contradictory. I listened to speaches made by the former Vice President and candidate of the People’s Democratic Party, PDP to at least fine meaning to some of his claims, but I found none rather than mere babblings.

At this crossroads, Nigeria and Nigerians needs words that speaks the answers to their many questions. However that words came through if only it is the answers and solutions to the problem of many years even if it is coming from a dying man as many who position themselves in God’s footprint are saying of this man who told Nigerians that he knows the roads and he has a golden boy with him for those seeking this golden opportunity to lead the way to Nirvana.
In Delta, in Plateau, in Lagos and in states yet to visit and take the massage of his promise to Nigerians, Tinubu and Kashim Shettima have continued to tell those with ears to hear that they are not taking figures to confuse Nigerians nor do they want to impress Nigerians with fake promises but rather want to assure Nigerians that enough is enough of playing games. Both Tinubu and Kashim Shettima knows that Nigerians are looking for people with track records of achievements and not only a blue print. Those who have a footprint to recall and not only futuristically speaking.
In 2023, elections will hold even though some dooms prophets have their own saying. Nigerians are not standing with negative minded people at this time about their imaginations. A renewed hope is all we need to stay positive. Some people said they want to recover. What do they want to recover? That is the answer Nigerians are curious to know after sixteen years of treasury looting by the Almighty PDP. While we forgive them however, we are looking for that hope coming in the next few months.

“With great joy and profound gratitude, I extend my heartfelt congratulations to the newly elected Senator, (Plateau North Senatorial District), Prince Pam Mwadkwon Dachungyang, and the Member of the House of Representatives, (Jos North/Bassa Constituency), Hon. Daniel Asama, on their resounding victory in the recently concluded bye election held in Plateau State.
“Your triumph is a testament to the true spirit of democracy and the unwavering support of the people.
“I have no doubt that both Prince Pam Mwadkon and Hon.

“It is essential for the government and the people to undertake immediate measures to reconcile and bridge the gaps that have emerged. We must never forget that every citizen, irrespective of their religion or ethnicity, is entitled to their fundamental rights. The use of religion as a tool of disfranchisement must cease; we must affirm that citizenship rights are not conditional on faith.
“Let us also strive to recapture the lost glory of our state, when Jos was hailed as the political Mecca of Nigeria, attracting momentous political events and embracing politicians from all shades and ideologies. We can revive this legacy by nurturing an environment that exudes peace, openness, and security for all. Together, we can restore Plateau State as a beacon of democratic excellence.
“In conclusion, I express my utmost optimism for the future of Plateau State. I extend my deepest appreciation to all who peacefully participated in the bye election, be it as candidates or enthusiastic supporters. Our journey towards progress and development continues, and I am confident that we will stand united, empowered by the unwavering spirit of our people.” said Kwande.
