The campaign movement which was inaugurated in Ibadan, the Oyo State capital on Tuesday, December 15, was led by former Minister of Works, Senator Adedayo Adeyeye, who led the team to visit the Olubadan of Ibadan, Oba Saliu Adetunji, and the Alaafin of Oyo, Oba Lamidi Adeyemi, for prayers in their respective palaces.

Adeyeye, while declaring the campaign movement open, he said: “For the discerning mind, 2023 election is already on the front burner of national discourse.

The discussion right now everywhere in the country is about what should and should not happen in 2023. That being the case, it is imperative that we should be part of these national discussions and activities.

We are asking him to come out and we are asking the entire people of the South-West to rally round him to make him the next president of Nigeria.

Every geo-political zone in the South has the right to produce a candidate, but the one that work harder would emerge. Don’t forget, all the citizens of Nigeria will vote to choose the next president.

In Asiwaju, you have a very great democrat. How much of a visionary leader he is? Those who knew Lagos before 1999 would recall for instance that at Oshodi, where there are three lanes, refuse covered two lanes. Today, Lagos is a source of pride to all Nigeria.

There is no state in the entire Nigeria that can compete with Lagos. If you take Lagos out of Nigeria, Lagos becomes the fifth largest economy in Africa. He brought in politicians as well as technocrats…. This is not about Bola Tinubu, it is about how Nigeria could be well.”
