The Call For President Tinubu To Run For Second Term By Rivers Assembly Is Highly Commendable.

What the Rivers State House of Assembly did yesterday, by calling on president Tinubu to declare for a second term, was a right step in the right direction, highly commendable and a welcomed development, kudos!

Without doubt, Mr president has done a lot, within two years of his administration, to revive an already collapsed economy, prices of commodities have started dropping, the exchange rate is now stable.

He is currently shaking up the security architecture of the country, to pave way for a robust and swift evaluation of our security agencies and agents, to combat insecurity to an end.

His economic policies are mind-blowing, with so much positive results that are visible.

A president who has done very well deserves another term to continue his good legacies.

I here by add my voice to the voices of my most senior bosses in the RSHA to call on President Tinubu to declare for a second term in the forthcoming 2027 presidential election, to continue his good works.

Hon. Obarasua Warmate,
Councillor representing ward five, Asari Toru LGA, Rivers State.
