…and they all said “AIYES”

During the meeting, APC members in the House of Rep overwhelming say “Aiyes” to endorse Tinubu’s presidential ambition.

Doguwa declared that APC House of Representatives members were fully in support of Tinubu’s candidacy

“I want to look at you in the face and tell you that this is the time to pay back. Tinubu has supported many to be Presidents of this country, to be Governors, Senators and members of the House of Representatives. Bola Ahmed Tinubu has no other time to be supported to achieve his life -long ambition than now.
