**JUST IN** I Have No Regret Installing Fashola Lagos Governor. - Tinubu.

 

The National Leader of the Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN), and former governor of Lagos State, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, yesterday said that he had no regrets pushing for Mr Babatunde Fashola as his successor in 2007. He made this statement at the Onikan stadium during the convention of the party in Lagos.

“When I was pushing for him to become governor in 2007, they said that he could not do anything.

“Today, I am vindicated. Thank you for not disappointing me and Lagosians and for not putting me to shame,’’ he told thousands of Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN) supporters in Lagos at the party’s convention.


Tinubu said: "You (Fashola) have actualised our vision and dreams. We are proud of your performance.’’

On the merger of four parties into All Progressive Congress (APC), Tinubu said the initiative was to bring about the necessary change in the polity.

“We demand a change in the governance of the country. Nigeria must be a prosperous, safe and secure nation.

“The challenges facing us as a nation – insecurity, kidnapping, mass poverty, unemployment and poor wages – must be addressed. - BIO Report.
