Former Senate President, Senator Ken Nnamani, has praised Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, for his contributions to the growth of democracy and good governance in Nigeria.
Nnamani in his words said “Your many contributions to the growth of democracy in Nigeria ‘stand strong’. Your role in NADECO and your efforts along with those of others helped in terminating military rule,” during a visit to Tinubu in Lagos on Wednesday. This was after the visits on Tuesday of former Ekiti governor Ayo Fayose and former Ogun governor Gbenga Daniel.
Nnamani presented to Tinubu his new book titled “Standing Strong: Legislative Reforms, Third Term and Other Issues of the 5th Senate” due to be presented to the public on Thursday, October 21, in Abuja.
Nnamani spoke about Tinubu’s role during his time as Senate President particularly during the bid to stop the Third Term agenda of former President Olusegun Obasanjo.
“You helped many times in stabilising the country. You assisted me a lot during my time as Senate President and particularly in stopping the Third Term project of former President Obasanjo.”
Tinubu thanked Nnamani for the visit and congratulated him for writing about his experience in office. He said the ideas and thoughts in the book would be helpful for the country. Tinubu urged other political actors to document their experiences and efforts, hoping this would help in resolving the national problems.
