Tinubu’s request was contained in a letter read by the Speaker, Hon Femi Gbajabiamila, during Tuesday plenary.

“After enlightening consultations with my family and traditional rulers, political associates and ordinary Nigerians citizens, I believe it is appropriate that I contest for the Presidency of this country. Indeed, I see this as my duty and my own moral obligation.
“I am asking that you grant me the chance to address the honourable members of our party caucus and sympathisers in the House of Representatives on March 16, 2022, at Ladi Kwali Hall of Sheraton Hotel, Abuja.
