COMBAT UK Hails Initiator, Sen Soji Akanbi, Woos Parties Without Presidential Candidates, Others.
Coordinator, Coalition Movement for Bola Ahmed Tinubu (COMBAT), United Kingdom(UK) Chapter, Prince Gboyega Aderolu (ROLU 1) has thrown weight behind the untiring efforts of the group’s Initiator, Senator Rilwan Adesoji Akanbi, to woo parties without presidential candidates and other political stakeholders of elections, for the actualisation of All Progressives Congress(APC) Standardbearer, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu’s presidential agenda. Prince Aderolu hailed Sen Akanbi for his charismatic mode of leadership, exhibited for his followers, and his unalloyed loyalty proved to his leader, Asiwaju Tinubu.
The group has started consultations and negotiations with other political parties without presidential candidates, Africano Trumpeters gathered.
The helmsman of COMBAT in UK, ROLU 1 also lauded Sen. Akanbi’s several initiatives and efforts towards realisation of Asiwaju Tinubu’s presidency. He revealed that they are considering alliances with the parties with the plan to get them to endorse former Lagos state governor for presidency.
Rolu 1 disclosed this in a media chat with Africano Trumpeters’ correspondent.
Prince Aderolu revealed that,“As laid down by our Ingenious Initiator and Amicable Leader, Senator Rilwan Adesoji Akanbi, and on his leverage, what we are trying to do with the coalition is that a lot of people are angry with their parties, maybe due to fraudulent primaries, and they moved to other parties. We are trying to target such individuals too, not parties alone.”
When asked about those aggrieved with the APC, he said, “They are even our main target. They left the APC maybe because their governors or party leaders caused it. We are trying to pacify them to contest for any position in any other party but they should work with us; they should support Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
“We are not asking them to support all the APC candidates because they are now on another platform. Instead of wasting the votes and their efforts on presidential candidates (of their new parties) that they have no prior relationship with, why can’t they work with us?
Rolu stated that though not all the 18 political parties registered with the Independent National Electoral Commission have fielded a presidential candidate.
“Even those who have fielded candidates, the state chapters of some of them do not reckon with the candidates because they (parties) do not have enough resources to take care of the chapters. So, they can work with us, knowing that our incoming president, Asiwaju Tinubu will appreciate them if he wins the election,” he submitted.
