The presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, has declared that he is the help and hope Nigeria needs to build a better country.
Tinubu made the assertion on Thursday night in Abuja shortly after returning from the United Kingdom from his 11 days vacation.
The former Lagos State Governor also said Nigerians should not buy into the narrative that the country is a failed state, insisting that Nigeria is not beyond repairs.
The APC flagbearer, who alighted from his private jet amid jubilation from his supporters and some members of his Presidential Campaign Council, also said that he felt better after his vacation in London.
He was received by his running mate, Kashim Shettima; the Director General of the PCC, Simon Lalong; his deputy, Adams Oshiomhole, and other party chieftains.

Tinubu speaking with journalists upon his arrival, said he felt better and he is ready to kick start his readiness for the presidential campaign.
He said, “The trip was very good. I enjoyed my break. And I’m happy to be back to my fatherland.
“And Nigerians should expect a very intelligent ability to think and perform. Nigerians should expect that the help they needed is here, the hope that is almost jittering is back and back actively.”
“And we hold every effort to the country of patriotism, dedication, capacity and ability to do the job. Not negative thinking, not the fact that Nigeria has failed; this country is the greatest.
“If it is to rebuild, we are builders; if it is construction, we are constructors. If it is assurance, we give Nigerians the assurance that we definitely make a better country out of it all.”
