2023, Tinubu and the NASS leadership tussle vanguardngr.com vanguardnews
National Leader of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, last Sunday, lashed out at the leadership of the National Assembly amid the jostle by members-elect to succeed the current principal officers. Sunday Vanguard x-rays the situation and its concomitant effects on the party’s preferred aspirants especially in the House of Representatives.The name Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu,resonates across the land. He’s a master strategist and goal getter.
Cashing, in on the angst against the ‘weak’ government of former President Goodluck Jonathan and the eventual withdrawal of Obsanjo’s support, Tinubu’s ACN launched an alliance with three other political parties and transformed to All Progressives Congress, APC, which is today the ruling party at the federal level.
With APC, Asiwaju has since expanded from his South-West enclave and established allies across the country and, to that extent, he has,become a toast of many Nigerians. That is, for sure, benevolence at work. In a statement released by his media aide, Tunde Rahman, on Sunday, Tinubu predicated his choice of Lawan and Gbajabimila on the aspiration of the party and the government to achieve their objectives seamlessly.
“It is against this backdrop that my support of the party’s position regarding the National Assembly leadership must be interpreted. In response to him, Dogara did not only dismiss the allegations of budget padding, he also called Tinubu a fascist and power grabber who wants to control all levels of government.
“Not too long ago, in 2015, when Tinubu tried to foist the same mentee of his as Speaker, in spite of the rational voices of caution by many stakeholders, many had been left wondering if the enforcement effort was at the instance of President Buhari and the Party.
