The National leader of the All Progressives Congress, APC, and presidential aspirant of the party, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu has assured that the party would remain united after its presidential primaries.
Tinubu said that the increasing number of people seeking the party’s presidential ticket is good for democracy.
The APC national leader stated this view late Tuesday after a meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari, at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
The APC leader met with President Buhari at his official residence in the Villa, to pay him the traditional Salah homage.
Responding to questions from journalists on the fears being expressed about the unity of the ruling party, he said the party would remain intact and united after its presidential primary, pointing out that President Buhari had shown that he is in support of a transparent democratic process.
According to him, “We are sure that we will remain united. You know our symbol is the broom, you don’t break it as you go. Nigeria requires commitment, a uniform system, and a stable country and that is the only way we can be very proud of Nigeria.
“The President has shown a great example of leadership, gave us the freedom to say you want to run, you want to attempt, go ahead. He is a democrat and if we are running a constitutional democracy, you don’t hinder the desire, the wish of other people.”
