Isaac said although Nigeria today, faces security challenges on several fronts, especially in the northeast and all parts of the country, he said an opportunity has presented itself to vote for a leader in the person of Tinubu as the next president of Nigeria next year.
He said:
“Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu who is well knowledgeable in economic transformation and developmental governance offers himself to bridge the gap.
“Tinubu believes that no matter where you come from, or what you look like, we are all born equal, touched by the Grace of God. He believes every person has worth, every person matters and every person deserves to be treated with decency and respect.
“This is evident in his unmatched leadership approach and records of human development in Lagos state and across Nigeria including the current administration.
“I want to believe that dignity was seen as a virtue reserved for leaders of his kind and It will take a revolution of the spirit, over many centuries, to open our eyes again to the dignity of such leaders like him in present-day Nigeria, so we are glad to have him.
“Nigeria doesn't need strongmen, we need strong institutions. We don't want trader's money, we need policies that encourage trades and fuels progress.
“We don't want patrons, we want partners who can help us build our own capacity to grow, at least a proper turnover maintenance of Nigeria refineries, We don't want the indignity of dependence, we want to make our own choices and determine our own future.
