He expressed optimism about Nigeria’s future, predicting “phenomenal growth” over the course of Tinubu’s eight-year term. “I choose to stand with reform. I choose to stand with the future,” he concluded.The announcement has sparked discussions across political circles, with many viewing Murray-Bruce’s move as a significant endorsement of Tinubu’s policies and leadership.
