“This goes beyond giving the APC presidential candidate support and shows that in togetherness, we can take this country forward.
“The emergence of Asiwaju gives hope that there are better days ahead where we would have an egalitarian society.
“We have absolute confidence in him that he can do it again just as he had done before,” he said.
