TINUBU HAS BEEN MADE A WAILER.....
Tinubu was quoted to
have made some remarks
about Buhari, including
that the latter begged him
to emerge president in
2015.
In a statement by the
Tinubu Media Office
yesterday, Jagaban as
fondly called, stated that
the story was concocted
by political enemies.
The statement reads: “In
the past 48 hours, we
have noticed the churning
out of falacious and
outright malicious stories
in the social media
concerning Asiwaju Bola
Tinubu.
“We want to state that the
stories are patently false
and we urge unsuspecting
Nigerians to ignore the
lies being spread and the
wicked stories about what
Tinubu purportedly said
or did.
“The stories being
churned out are being
done by some fifth
columnists who seek to
drive a wedge between
these leaders.
“One of such stories is the
one entitled ‘Tinubu
Bombs Buhari,’ which is fit
only for the trash can and
a figment of the writer’s
imagination.
“Asiwaju Tinubu remains
a staunch APC stalwart
and supporter of the APC
government under the
leadership of President
Muhammadu Buhari.
Tinubu is preoccupied
with assisting to find
solutions to the present
challenges now
confronting us as a nation
and nothing will distract
him from doing this.”
Tinubu allegedly made the
comments when he
received a segment of APC
chieftains from the South
West who paid him a
solidarity visit late on
Monday.
He was quoted to have
said: “I regret building
APC and giving Buhari a
platform to become
president.
“We all knew he didn’t
merit to be president, but
you know how we
politicians behave when
we are desperate for
electoral position; We beg.
“That was how President
Buhari always and
frequently came to my
private house here in
Ikoyi with his entourage
which included that
Nasiru and others.
“At a point, he was
practically living in my
house, under my roof.
The room he was sleeping
was just 6-7 steps from
my own private room. I
was building his
confidence because he
didn’t have it. He was
even scared of Atiku and
Rabiu.
“What I ate, he ate. My
security was his security
because he expressed
fears about the security
provided by the Jonathan
government. He was
afraid of Jonathan.
“Now they occupy Aso
Rock and they think
Asiwaju Tinubu is
finished. He is using
people I brought from
obscurity against me. Now
they say my mouth is
smelling. They say I’m no
longer relevant. The battle
line is drawn, I will show
them the meaning of
Asiwaju.
“I know they have
surrounded my house.
They are there outside.
You can’t see them but I
know where they are. I
see them, but I am not
afraid of them. They know
that.”
When asked “what next”
by one of the loyalists,
who said: “What do we do
now?” Tinubu was quoted
to have replied: “Don’t
worry, just watch. Time
will tell, I built this party
and I can destroy it, but
for now, I vow, PDP must
win Ondo State
