“Is Buhari Working Against Tinubu?” – Details Emerge As Imminent Crisis Looms for APC
Prominent human rights lawyer and ex-chairman of the national human rights commission (NHRC), Prof. Chidi Odinkalu says, President Muhammadu Buhari is working against the presidential bid of Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the presidential bannerman of the ruling All Progressive Congress (APC).
As reported by the Nigerian Tribune, the renowned legal luminary President Buhari’s utterances at the campaign rallies do not speak well for the presidential bid of Tinubu.
He said President Buhari at the campaign rallies continues to tell supporters to vote for someone with traits that do reflect or portray the APC government.
Prof Odinkalu said:
“The president is campaigning with Tinubu and telling the people ‘don’t vote for a fraudulent person.”
He stated that this statement might indirectly mean that the President is campaigning for another candidate and not his fellow party member.
Prof Odinkalu said:
“The question for me is: does Tinubu want to continue presenting the president for him to keep saying the kind of things he is saying at the rallies, things that cut both ways and impossibly actually don’t reflect quite well on his candidate, it seems to me.
“That is up to the candidate to decide. I also don’t see how Buhari necessarily sells Bola Tinubu as a candidate.”
