Kwankwaso contested against Tinubu in the February 25 presidential poll but placed fourth while Tinubu was declared winner of the poll.
Referencing Kwankwaso’s relationship with Tinubu, Oginni said, “This is not what anyone can call an anti-party activity. After an election, there’s a way all political parties come together and make sure there’s a way forward.”
He also said the Ogun NNPP withdrew its petition against Abiodun in line with Kwankwaso’s steps after the election, urging him to stop some members of the party’s National Working Committee in connivance with a group in the state plotting to appeal the tribunal’s ruling which dismissed the case. Oginni said, “I want to use this opportunity to call on Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso to call on these people in Ogun State that are working in contrast to his belief and what he’s doing with Asiwaju .
“We have withdrawn our petition against Abiodun’s victory before the tribunal, but when Senator Kwankwaso is going to Paris to meet Tinubu, going to the Villa, some people in the National Working Committee of the party are struggling that withdrawal of petition from the tribunal should not stand. “I say this is going to become a double jeopardy for these people working in contrast with the leadership of the party, especially senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso.”All rights reserved.
