The Atiku-Okowa campaign organisation has berated the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, for trying to blackmail the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), and also blamed the APC-led Federal Government over his “looming rejection by Nigerians.”

The campaign also said that it found it pathetic that Tinubu was seeking a face-saving measure ahead of his “shattering electoral defeat by shedding crocodile tears” and claiming that the redesigning of the naira notes and the fuel crisis under the APC administration, which he had been allegedly benefitting from, were plots to scuttle the 2023 general elections.

Spokesperson for the campaign, Kola Ologbondiyan, while further speaking in a statement on Wednesday in Abuja, noted that “it is unfortunate that Asiwaju Tinubu is trying to hoodwink Nigerians by seeking to exonerate himself and blame others in the Buhari led-APC administration from the biting fuel scarcity in the country, when in reality he (Asiwaju Tinubu) is known to be behind the insensitive and anti-people policies that have brought so much calamity to our country including the current persistent fuel scarcity.

“It indeed speaks volume of Asiwaju Tinubu’s character, that while he is reported to be hugely involved in the corruption in the petroleum sector, which had led to the fuel crisis, he is pretending to care for the pains Nigerians are passing through just because it was beginning to affect his political life ambition.”

Ologbondiyan observed that “it is clear that Asiwaju Tinubu is lamenting over the redesigning of the naira just because the policy has frustrated his boastful plots to use slush fund, which he allegedly stashed away in secret vaults, for vote buying and manipulative schemes including alleged funding of thugs to compromise the integrity of the 2023 presidential election through the setting up of the jagaban army.”

He stressed that only politicians who had always won elections by relying on bullion vans had become troubled over the Central Bank of Nigeria’s monetary policy to redesign the naira.

He pointed out that “more reprehensible is the fact that few months to the end of the Buhari government, Asiwaju Tinubu is now struggling to distance himself from an administration which he told the world that he brought into office just because he wants to beguile Nigerians and take their votes.

The spokesperson questioned “How can Asiwaju Tinubu accuse an administration he had been a part of since 2015 of trying to sabotage the 2023 elections except he is making revelations to Nigerians about their plans?”

Continuing he stated that it was imperative to state that Nigerians, who were prepared to trek distances to cast their votes are the patriots who had been at the butt of pains which the government Tinubu installed, had foisted on them.

He advised the APC presidential candidate that he ought to know that “Nigerians can see through his antics and beguilements and that his diversionary theatrics on fuel and new naira notes cannot sway Nigerians at this moment.

He added, “In any case, from the songs of lamentation of Asiwaju Tinubu, it is clear that his presidential life ambition has collapsed.

The campaign further counseled the APC presidential flag bearer to withdraw from the race before the waterloo of his loud defeat by Atiku Abubakar, the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party.
