According to an organization called Coalition Movement for Bola Ahmed Tinubu (COMBAT), the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential nominee deserves to succeed President Muhammadu Buhari in 2023.
The organization claimed in a statement released on Sunday by its convener, Senator Rilwan Akanbi, that Bola Tinubu is more deserving of the presidency due to his accomplishments and track record in Lagos State.
It said that Atiku Abubakar, the PDP’s presidential candidate, and Peter Obi, his rival from the Labour Party (LP), could not compare to Tinubu in terms of political accomplishments.

The group went on to say that Tinubu deserves to be Nigeria’s future leader, highlighting the fact that his record in business puts him ahead of rivals in being acknowledged as the creative force behind the growth of the Lagos economy.
The statement read, “Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu stands out among the major contenders in promotion of democratic consolidation to reposition Nigeria before and during his tenure as Lagos state government. It is on record that his stand for expanding the frontier of governance through the creation of Local Government and efforts to sustain it despite opposition by the PDP government under Obasanjo-Atiku tickets makes him far better in terms of ability to restructure the country if given the mandate to lead the country. This is incomparable with Peter Obi of Labour party who refused to allow the democratic selection of local government chairmen for 8 years while in office.
“At the inception of the democratic system in 1999, it is a tradition for states to carry handout bowls to Abuja for survival until Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu introduced intervention in the areas of internal revenue generation that led Lagos State to prosperity. From internal revenue generation of six hundred million to twenty billion naira, Lagos became a template for 35 states and lately federal government for expanding the generation of revenue.

“Dissecting Tinubu’s economic track records takes him ahead of other candidates for being recognized as the visionary behind the success of Lagos state economy as a prelude to transforming Nigeria’s economy. Tinubu pioneered efforts in the country with N15 billion raised through bonds is a track record none of the candidates can match. The enviable records of performance of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s eight years in office as governor have sustained the states as the nation’s economic and commercial, and currently 4th largest economy in Africa.”
