Bola Ahmed Tinubu, also known as Jagaban, is a former Governor of Lagos State and a prominent figure in Nigerian politics. Tinubu has long been rumored to be interested in running for president, and he recently declared his intention to seek the presidential nomination of the All Progressives Congress (APC) for the 2023 election.
Tinubu's presidential bid has been met with both support and criticism. Supporters of Tinubu argue that he has the experience and leadership skills needed to lead Nigeria, citing his successful tenure as Governor of Lagos State and his role in the formation of the APC. They also point to his strategic vision and political acumen, which helped secure the victory of Muhammadu Buhari in the 2015 presidential election.
However, Tinubu's bid has also been met with opposition and controversy. He has been accused of corruption and abuse of power, although no charges have been brought against him. He has also been accused of using his political influence to enrich himself and his family. These allegations have led some to question whether Tinubu is fit to lead the country.
Despite the controversies, Tinubu remains a popular figure in Nigerian politics. He has a loyal base of supporters who believe in his vision for the country and believe that he has the experience and skills needed to lead Nigeria.
It remains to be seen whether Tinubu will be successful in his bid for the presidency. If he does win the APC nomination, he will face a tough battle in the general election against the ruling party and other opposition candidates.
