Akanbi stated that over the years the former Lagos state governor as distinguished himself as someone who spots and utilities human talents.

He said, “the team of a government determines the mind of the leader. Let me give you an example, when Bola Tinubu was governor of Lagos State, his team members were quite young. He is a talent hunter, he looks for younger people who have quality and what it takes, brushes them up and makes them take the mantle of the leadership of the country.

“At the moment, look at those who served as commissioners or aides to Tinubu when he was Lagos state governor in the present federal government and look at the role they are playing – It is a pointer to the youths to support Tinubu. There were many older people around in Lagos, but he chose to take the risk on the youth, look at the result. See Tinubu as a captain of a team.”
