There’s a cold war between Tinubu and Buhari – Kperogi, makes revelations via politicsngr
POLITICS NIGERIA reports that writing his weekly column, Kperogi said the supposed tension between Messrs Tinubu and Buhari “bubbled to the surface this week with Tinubu’s impassioned Abeokuta outburst”.
“Hide the petrol, hide the naira, we will still vote! We will win,” the former Lagos governor had said. Kperogi wrote: “It was always obvious to keen, disinterested observers that Bola Tinubu’s gamble in helping Buhari to ascend to power won’t pay off in the end; that his opportunistic political love affair with Buhari won’t be requited; and that the brittle, delicately thin thread that held their relational dynamic would snap sooner or later. I wrote countless columns on this.
“The story I heard of Tinubu’s childhood in Iragbiji reminded me of someone I grew up with in my hometown whom we nicknamed Mohammed Shaytan. Mohammed was his given name, but his bizarre emotional investment in endlessly ferocious fights with anyone until he won earned him the name Shaytan, the Arabic word for Satan. We used to allow him to “defeat” us so we would have peace. Perpetual personal strife, which he thrived in, wasn’t physically, mentally, and emotionally sustainable for a lot of us.
