The governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, in Delta State in the just concluded governorship election, Olorogun O’tega Emerhor, has described president-elect, Gen. Muhammadu Buhri and national leader of the paty, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu as pillars of Nigeria’s democracy.

According to him, the duo had worked so hard to rescue Nigeria from the stranglehold of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, which he claimed had collapsed the socio-economic structure of the country in the last 16 years.

Emerhor, in a statement by his Director of Media and Political Communication, Dr. Fred Oghenesivbe, said: “Now, there will be a great light at the end of the tunnel for Nigerians who have been fasting and praying for “change” occasioned by the reckless corruption in high places in government.”

He said that the bad governance of the PDP provoked Tinubu, Buhari and other progressives to deploy time, treasure and talents to rescue Nigeria from the un-progressive cabal.

Emerhor said “Asiwaju Tinubu and Gen Buhari have finally etched their names in global political hall of fame through their commitment to the entrenchment of structures that produced our democratic experience as a nation”.
