2023: Nigeria Doesn’t Need A Part-time President – Saraki

Former Senate President and presidential aspirant, Bukola Saraki has said the country does not need a part-time leader in 2023.

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) chieftain stated that he has the leadership qualities to lead the country, stressing that the wrong choice of the next president would spell doom for the country.

Saraki added that only an energetic and competent president can solve the worsening state of insecurity, bad economy and disunity in the country.

The former lawmaker made this known while addressing Ogun State PDP delegates at the party’s Secretariat in Abeokuta on Monday.

The presidential hopeful pointed out that he remains the only aspirant with the energy and capacity to carry the workload and the demands of the office of the President.

The former Governor of Kwara State expressed confidence in winning the PDP Presidential primaries scheduled for May 28 in Abuja.

He said “We need a President that will stand, that is bold and courageous. We all know four years as the Senate President, I stood for this country, I stood for what I believed was in the interest of this country.

“Let us find that person who has the energy because the work of a President is not part-time, especially now the country is very bad.

“Nigeria needs a President that is up and running, not a President that will be giving instructions because when you give instructions and you don’t check nothing will happen.

“You need somebody that has the energy to do it. I believe that I have that energy and capacity to do it.”
