The All Progressives Congress,
APC, has reacted to the claim by Senate President that its National Leader,
Ahmed Bola Tinubu, was supporting President Muhammadu Buhari in order to
takeover from him in 2023.
The Senate President had on
Monday said Tinubu was backing President Buhari’s re-election with the hope of
succeeding the President in 2023.
Saraki claimed also that the
former Lagos State Governor told him he would support Buhari even if he was on
a stretcher.
The former Kwara Governor spoke
in reaction to a statement on Sunday by Tinubu, alleging that he left the
ruling party because of his presidential ambition and selfish quest for power.
Speaking with Punch, the acting
National Publicity Secretary of the All Progressives Congress, Yekini Nabena,
indicated that it was premature to talk about 2023 presidency.
He also said that Tinubu’s
presidential ambition had not been communicated to the party.
Nabena said, “This (Tinubu’s
ambition) has not been communicated to the party, so I cannot comment on it.
“Besides, why should anybody be
talking about 2023 when we are in 2018? Is anybody God?”
