President Bola Ahmed Tinubu does not need to reintroduce himself to Nigerians who voted for him, the All Progressives Congress (APC) said yesterday.
President Bola Ahmed Tinubu does not need to reintroduce himself to Nigerians who voted for him, the All Progressives Congress presidential candidate in the February 25 poll, Peter Obi, that he should reveal his identity to Nigerians.
He told reporters yesterday that President Tinubu should “tell Nigerians who he is,” adding that they deserved to know his true name and everything relating to his educational career. However, APC, in a statement by its Publicity Secretary, Felix Morka, a lawyer, chided Obi and Atiku. Also yesterday, APC National Secretary, Senator Ajibola Basiru, who spoke on a national television, said Obi and Atiku were suffering from the “traumatic effect of electoral defeat”, stressing that they had regressed to “a level of absurdity”. The ruling party condemned Obi’s outbursts, saying that he was inciting Nigerians to violence like his co-traveller, Atiku.
“Unwilling to miss out in the orchestrated campaign of calumny against President Bola Ahmed Tinubu over his certificate from the Chicago State University, Obi jumped on the tailboard of Atiku’s bandwagon to satisfy his uncanny and insatiable thirst for cheap media attention, long after his Labour Party had dissociated itself from a bogus call to action by the former Vice President. ”In his drivel, Peter Obi, demanded that the President reintroduce himself to Nigerians, as though the 8.
”They know him as a former Governor of Lagos State who designed and paved the pathway to the growth and prosperity of present day Lagos, the 5th largest economy in Africa. ”As for President Tinubu’s academic record at the Chicago State University, the facts are clear and settled except for those political jaundiced by the trauma of electoral defeat.
”We condemn the sordid and disgraceful attempt by Obi, Atiku and their cheerleaders to use the mainstream and social media to intimidate the judiciary, incite the public to violence, disparage Justices of the Appeal and Supreme Court, and we urge all well meaning Nigerians to condemn this anti-democratic and irresponsible conduct of both political naggers.
Basiru said it was laughable that Obi, who as governor refused to conduct local government elections in Anambra for eight years has turned around to pontificate on integrity, democracy and rule of law. Its President, Mrs Ginika Tor, advised the two opposition leaders to calm down, saying that Tinubu’s victory was divine and popular.
