“I’m Not Scared Of Your Conspiracy” – Tinubu To Opposition Parties

Bola Tinubu

President Bola Tinubu has said that he is not scared of whatever opposition political parties are planning against him. He recently had his say as he hosted the Renewed Hope Ambassadors, and Nigerians have been reacting.

Emphasizing that he is not afraid of the opposition’s conspiracy, he noted that despite the alleged gang-up against him, he will not give up.

Tinubu added that he is already used to being consistently attacked, so he’ll survive once more.

His words, “They want to scare me off; it is a lie. I’ve been through this path before, and if I have to come back over and over and over again, I’ll do the same thing.

There is no better place than your own country, and no one can build it except you. We saw great things because we see skyscrapers. We wonder how the plane takes off and flies from one destination to the other. These are no magic of yesterday.

It is the thinker of tomorrow and the future that can elevate life, that can reform us all. As a transformative leader, you are in good company. Don’t be afraid.

I’ve listened to you. There is the economy. I didn’t have to look back because the truth is, I took over from myself. The late (Muhammadu) Buhari is me; he was a partner. If I took over from him, is that not from myself?

So if something is wrong, fine—live with it, correct it, move on. The life voyage is not going to be easy, and so many of you are traveling with me. I can only stand before you and say you will not regret it.

That’s why we ask you to renew their hope. If they don’t want to, we will let them see the hope and the roads with the bridges and the children we raise, and the economy we are growing. We lend them ‘jiggy bola’. We will give them eyeglasses.

I can assure you, whatever you say I do, but one thing that you need from me is a promise that I won’t run away from you. With you, the deal is done. No other thing—whatever we need to do, coordinate from the ward level.

I’m grateful to all of you. This is an opportunity of a lifetime to break the shackles of poverty and ignorance, to put freedom in the hearts of our people, to ensure democracy survives—not the noise-making, not the rascality of a street convention.

We cannot submit to disobedience of a lawful order of the court. We must embrace the judiciary, whether it favours us or not.

We submit to the principles of democracy, separation of powers, and the understanding of its dynamics and the nationhood that Nigeria is. We must build one country.

There’s no other way on the path that we embrace to national greatness than to build one nation, one common vision for progress and prosperity of our people. That’s what we must do. That’s what Renewed Hope is all about.

You must give them that hope, but try as much as possible, men and women of integrity who are here in this room, to build a Nigeria.”

WOW.
