    Only APC Can Transform Nigeria -Sen. Remi Tinubu

    Lagos Central Senatorial District Senator, Oluremi Tinubu, has said that only a progressive government led by the All Progressives Congress (APC) can genuinely transform Nigeria.
    Senator Tinubu made this declaration during the eighth edition of Town Hall Meeting and graduation of the pioneer trainees under the Youth Empowerment and Skills Acquisition Scheme (YESAS) initiated by her, at Banilux Event Place, Yaba, Lagos yesterday.

    The event featured distribution of certificates and money-cards to 187 graduands as business start-up kits, as well as the cutting of the APC cake.

    She said her optimism that change is possible was borne out of the emergence of the new party.
    She said: “There is hope in the horizon. Change has come to our shores. Indeed, the announcement of the registration by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) electrified Nigerians and brightened the political space.
    “Clearly, only a progressive government under the All Progressives Congress (APC) can genuinely transform Nigeria and end years of inadequate funding for development, poor infrastructures, mass poverty and unemployment, endless strikes in our tertiary institutions and gross development deficits.”

    The nation today, Senator Tinubu noted, is confronted with many critical issues.
    “Concerns over how best to resolve them continue to mount. However, there is cause for hope because Nigerians committed to change are bonding together to work together.
    “If we all also work together, we can realise the vision of a better future for coming generations,” she added.
    According to her, the challenge now is to work together to mobilise the populace and ensure APC’s resounding victory in coming elections.

    “By this,” she said, “we will be creating endless opportunities for national progress. With determination, we can all join hands to make great things happen in place of the prevalent decay and complaints that exist across the nation today.
    “Through our commitment and collective efforts, we will surely overcome our challenges. Wherever each one of us stands, let us ensure effective mobilization for our party, the All Progressives Congress (APC).
    “By working together with unity of purpose, we can send a message of hope to others and make our society better.”

    Representative of the Lagos State Governor, Mr. Babatunde Fashola(SAN), Hon. Teslim Folami, described PDP as a stinking party, noting that the party would never be the same again.
    Folami, the governor’s Special Adviser on Legislative and Political Bureau, said the APC would strategise and get ready for PDP’s antics come 2015.

    The Lagos Central District Leader of the APC, Prince Tajudeen Olusi, said that APC is strong because it is made up of honest and sincere people.
    “Our target,” Prince Olusi said, “is change for the betterment of the country. Our governments at various levels have discharged good leadership to the people. I urge all our party leaders at the grassroots to compliment achievements at the state level.”

    Among the personalities at the event were the wife of Lagos State Governor, Mrs. Abimbola Fashola; former Minister of State for Defence, Prince Demola Seriki; former Lagos state Commissioner for Finance, Mr Wale Edun and the representative of Oba Rilwanu Akiolu, Chief Aderibigbe Ajose; Hon.
