The National Leader of the All
Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, has warned against any plot
to destroy the party ahead of the 2019 general elections.
Tinubu was speaking on Tuesday,
as his ‘anointed’ candidate, Babajide Sanwo-Olu was announced winner of the
Lagos governorship primaries, against the wishes of the National Working
Committee (NWC).
Also, incumbent Governor,
Akinwunmi Ambode, had opened a can of warns against Sanwo-Olu two days before
the election.
However, Tinubu has warned
against endangering President Muhammadu Buhari’s chances next year.
He said: “You don’t bring the
roof down. You don’t bring the house down. Safeguard the foundation. The
exercise you have witnessed today is a prelude; it is good for the general
election of the party.
“It is good for Buhari’s
endorsement to continue. 1.9 million votes. You don’t see this type of crowd.
If the summation today is less than that, there will be disappointment.
“Look at that in the larger
picture. If this house that accommodates all of us; we are facing one way. We
are supporting the president. If they are changing, I have to abide by that. I
have no choice.”
