Presidential candidate of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Tinubu on Monday asked the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Labour Party (LP) and other political parties who are calling for a change of government in 2023 to keep quiet.
He made the remarks in Abuja at the inauguration of the Tinubu/Shetimma Women Presidential Team for the 2023 general elections.
Tinubu who said the APC will retain power in 2023 said that the opponents were in power for 16 years but failed to understand the ripple effects of restoring power for industrialisation.
He also said with his candidature as President, he would end banditry and poverty and restore hope, peace, and security.
“If they say they want a change of government, just tell them ‘we like to be polite, but shut up your mouth’.
“Prosperity is here, health is here, security is here, banditry has ended. Hopelessness is not part of our dictionary” he said.
Over 1,200 women members of the APC from across the country attended the event. President Muhammadu Buhari was represented by his Chief of Staff, Professor Ibrahim Gambari.
