Lawmaker representing Edo North Senatorial District, Comrade Adams Oshiomhole, has claimed that President Bola Tinubu and his predecessor, the late Muhammadu Buhari, both members of the All Progressives Congress (APC), differ significantly in their approach to policymaking.
Oshiomhole, in an interview on The Mic On Podcast on Sunday,
criticized the immediate past administration, stating that Tinubu was unable to
openly criticize Buhari’s government because he played a key role in bringing
him to power.
The lawmaker recalled a statement he made during Tinubu’s
presidential campaign in 2022, where he declared that the former Lagos State
governor would not run on Buhari’s record.
He said: “I said during Tinubu’s campaign that Asiwaju would
not run on the record of Buhari.
“Even though Buhari was still a sitting president then, I
said Tinubu would run on his own person and record, not the record of Buhari,
because Tinubu was not a player in Buhari’s government.
“Tinubu did not even have the opportunity to nominate anyone
into Buhari’s government. President Tinubu has a sophisticated mind. He had to
speak as a statesman; he cannot disown his predecessor, but I can do so.”
