Buhari And His ilk Are Agents Of Destabilization [A Recap Of What Bola Tinubu Said Of GMB]

As Nigeria counts down to 2015 elections, NewsWireNGR promises to reproduce contents of major contending aspirants in the lead up to the polls and we found what the Former Lagos State Governor Tinubu said of his candidate General Muhammadu Buhari.

According to the wikileaks revelation, Bola Tinubu told  ConGen and DAS Bridgewater the following….

6. (C) Turning to the presidential contest, Tinubu disclosed that he does not like President Obasanjo because he  contributed to the end of democracy in Nigeria during his tenure as a military president and is now benefiting from that history. That said, Tinubu admitted that he and his party, the Alliance for Democracy, must support Obasanjo. Southwest Nigeria is Yoruba land and the President is Yoruba. 

Tinubu”s party had no choice since it has not fielded a presidential candidate. Moreover, Obasanjo is the only
candidate who stands a chance of blocking his rival, General Muhammadu Buhari, whose ethnocentrism would jeopardize Nigeria”s national unity. Buhari and his ilk are agents of destabilization who would be far worse than Obasanjo.

Tinubu and many other governors are therefore implementing a strategy to re-elect Obasanjo, partly in an effort to prevent Sharia from spreading. Tinubu predicted that the President will follow his own course, if re-elected, since he will not need as many friends the second time around. 

Bola Tinubu is the Leader of the All Progressives Congress, APC, a platform that Buhari is flying it’s flags as a Presidential Candidate. During the nomination for a Vice Presidential aspirant, Buhari left Tinubu to pick a choice candidate as his VP which led to the emergence of Professor Yemi Osinbajo.
