2023: “Tell Us” – Tinubu Camp Throws Fresh Challenge At Peter Obi, Atiku

A women’s support group for the presidential ambition of the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate, Bola Tinubu has submitted that no other presidential candidate has done what Tinubu has done to support and groom women in Nigeria.

The group known as the Progressive Sisters Network in a statement in Abuja made by its national coordinator, Rinsola Abiola challenged all other candidates interested in the 2023 presidency to publicly reveal what they have done to support women.

While promising to mobilize women for the candidacy of Tinubu and his running mate, Kashim Shettima, Abiola stated that there is no better option available to Nigerians at the 2023 polls.

She said, “Our foremost aim at this moment is to contribute our quota to mobilising women’s votes for our father, leader and presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu and his running mate, Senator Kashim Shettima; and this is what has led to the conceptualisation of the Sister-to-Sister Campaign.

“Our message is simple: the Tinubu/Shettima ticket presents the greatest hope of equity for Nigerian women, and this assertion is backed by the public service track records of both men.”

The Challenge

Abiola challenged other candidates including Peter Obi of the Labour Party (LP) and Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) as well as their supporters to show what they’ve done to support women.

“I make it bold to say that there is no leader in Nigeria’s political space who can lay claim to empowering and mentoring as many women as Asiwaju has, and I throw a challenge to other presidential candidates and their supporters to tell us what they have done for women.”
