Deputy President of the Senate, Senator Barau Jibrin has declared that his loyalty to President Bola Tinubu is 100 per cent while noting that he will follow the president’s instruction in respect of who should be his running mate in 2027 ‘without hesitation’.
Team@orientactualmags.com learned that Senator Barau, who said this while talking to journalists in Abuja on Wednesday, also called President Tinibu his ‘political father’.
‘Whatever the president asks me to do, I will do it — 100 per cent.
He is my political father. If he calls on me to work with him, I will simply say, ‘Thank you, sir’ and I will do it’ he said.
The senator, who represents Kano North, however noted that it is too early to talk about ‘who gets what in 2027?’ as the focus ought to be on governance and giving support to the president’s efforts to develop the country at least for now.
‘Mr President has been working hard to reposition Nigeria and tackle the problems he inherited.
He is a kind-hearted and open-minded leader who stood by me when I faced challenges in Kano.
The president is the father of the nation. But for now, we stand by him, we are working with him, and we want him to succeed. When he succeeds, we all succeed.
When the time comes, we will talk politics. For now, let us face governance and support Mr President to succeed. When he succeeds, we all succeed’ he said.
The federal lawmaker also restated his commitment to the ideals of the progressive political family to which both he and Tinubu belong, noting that loyalty remains a core value of his political journey.
‘I am a progressive to the core, and loyalty is something I cherish deeply. I am 100 per cent loyal to Mr President’ he added-Team@orientactualmags.com Do you have any information you wish to share with us? Do you want us to cover your event or programme?
