Tinubu A Dogged Fighter, champion of good causes – Bishop Archbishop Atilade of the Anglican Diocese and president of the Christian Welfare Initiative (CWI), has described national leader of the Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN) and former Lagos State governor, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, as a dogged fighter and a champion of good causes. “Tinubu is fighting for all Nigerians and we need more people like him in this country”, Archbishop Atilades aid when he paid a condolence visit to the leader of the All Progressive Congress (APC) over the death of his mother, Alhaja Abibat Asabi Mogaji. The clergyman expressed concern over the level of poverty and waste in the public sector. “Is Nigeria under a curse? No! We need good leadership to deliver us”. He identified the likes of Tinubu as having the qualities required for good leadership in the country. “You have people that can stand behind you at all times,” he told Tinubu. Atilade described the late Alhaja Mogaji as a “righteous woman who never discriminated against any religion or tribe”. Quoting from the Bible, he said, “The memory of the righteous is everlasting. She was a mobiliser per excellence, one who touched the lives of many people and played a pivotal role in what became the successful campaign of the primary health programme in Nigeria today. “Mama was passionate and compassionate. She showed burden for others and kindness in attitude, words and deeds. Alhaja Abibat was her brother’s and sister’s keeper and a staunch supporter of what was just”, he said. Source: Leadership
