According to APC Presidential Candidate, Tinubu’s campaign spokesperson, Festus Keyamo; I have said on different fora that Asiwaju is the easiest candidate to market. On the surface, people just thought like “is this guy joking? Is he insane? By the time we begin to roll out the records, the facts, and the figures, it will now become clear that nobody is close to Asiwaju.
Because it is about what you have done. Governance is not for motivational speakers. Governance is not for smooth talkers. Most smooth talkers are the 419 people who talk their way into power. I am sorry, governance is not about that. Governance is about records.
Motivational speaking is different from governance. What have they done? People say you can’t campaign for Asiwaju without looking stupid. I have such comments and I love that comment a lot. Do you know why I love that comment that you can’t look stupid? Because only geniuses look stupid.
I was privileged to travel with Vice President Yemi Osinbajo during his presidential primary campaign tours across the country. The complaints by party members about the reward system in the APC dominated the conversations. With Asiwaju likely to emerge victorious come 2023, how would you address this anomaly?
