Bola Tinubu Campaigns For Sylva For Bayelsa Governorship Contest Under APC

Timipre Sylva
Former governor of Lagos State and All Progressives Congress (APC) National Leader, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu has called on the people of Bayelsa state to vote for Chief Timipre Sylva in the December 5, 2015 Governorship election in the State.
Tinubu encouraged Sylva to work hard and secure the APC ticket at the primary election, to enable him win the governorship poll for the greater benefit of the state.
“I want him to contest the governorship election because of his proven leadership qualities and our belief that he can bring change to the state” he said.
Tinubu who met Sylva at his Abuja home not only endorsed him as the party’s consensus candidate for the December 5, 2015 governorship election but commended him for his contributions to the development of the party in Nigeria, particularly Bayelsa State.
“It is time for Bayelsans to unite and support a person who can effectively enhance unity, provide opportunities for all and lead the people in a different direction”
He expressed total and unreserved support for Sylva’s aspiration to clinch the party’s ticket and governorship seat even as he mandated APC leaders and members in Bayelsa State to support his choice.
“If you want change, if you are unhappy with the direction of Bayelsa State, then you must join the governorship race and change the state for the people.”
Tinubu, who also described Sylva as an agent of change, is pushing for the former governor of Bayelsa State,to occupy the governorship position once again. [myad]
