What Tinubu told APC screening panel – Aide

Frontline presidential aspirant, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, on Monday night, appeared before the John Odigie-Oyegun-led All Progressives Congress (APC) screening panel.

He answered questions bordering “on his upbringing, educational and professional background”, according to his campaign spokesman, Mr. Bayo Onanuga.

Onanuga, in a statement, said: “He confidently told the panel why he is qualified to fly the flag of APC as its presidential candidate.

“He cited his success as governor of Lagos State, his raising the internal revenue generation of the state from a paltry N600 million monthly, which has now grown to N51billion today.

“He also cited his invitation to Enron to begin the first state-backed power generation in Nigeria and how Nigeria will need to take the power transmission lines as a highway.

“Tinubu in his answers demonstrated vast knowledge in economic management and a perfect understanding of Nigeria’s political economy.

“The screening committee expressed satisfaction with Tinubu’s knowledge of the economy and socio-political issues that are affecting the country.”
