Asiwaju Bola Tinubu would succeed as president, according to former deputy governor of Sokoto state Mukhtar Shagari, if he assembles the correct team.
This was said by Shagari during an interview on Politics Today on Channels Television on Thursday.
He advised the previous governor of Lagos State to select the proper people who have integrity while choosing the right people to work with.
If he has the appropriate team, very simply, Shagari remarked. You can scarcely win any competition if you are the captain of a football team, if you are the only one who is good and talented, and your squad lacks strikers.
“But if you have the right people, in fact it is the right team and strikers that will help you score the goals. So, if Bola Ahmed Tinubu does what he did in Lagos at the national level, that is expanding what he did to achieve success in Lagos, then bring in the right calibre of people.

“Bring in people who know what they are doing, people who have integrity because the brightest person can fail if he doesn’t have the integrity. So, if he has the right team and the right people, I believe that he can still do what he did in Lagos in Nigeria,” Shagari said.
Speaking on what Tinubu should do after swearing-in, Shagari urged Tinubu to be wary of sycophants, take security seriously and work on the economy.
He said, “First of all, he (Tinubu) must be very careful of sycophants, people who will tell him stories, people who will tell him things they believe he will want to hear.
“Another one is that he must take the issue of security seriously, people are still being killed, people are still being kidnapped and after that he must look at the economy. I know he will be able to bring people who will help him build the economy,” he said.
Tinubu will be sworn in on Monday, May 29, to succeed President Muhammadu Buhari, who will be completing his two-terms eight years administration.
Buhari was first elected in 2015 and then re-elected in 2019 on the platform of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC.
