I can't leave Buhari for Atiku in 2019 -Tinubu declares!

Former Lagos state governor and
national leader of the All Progressives
Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Tinubu
has said that he would never support
Atiku’s presidential ambition
He said he is only committed to the
success of his party and President
Muhammadu Buhari if he seeks re-
election
Tinubu described the alleged support
for Atiku as ‘moot point’
Former Lagos state governor and
national leader of the All Progressives
Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Tinubu has
reacted to insinuations in certain
quarters that he is in support of Atiku
Abubakar’s 2019 presidential ambition,
Media gathered that Tinubu who
spoke through his media adviser, Tunde
Rahman, said the issue of supporting
Atiku Abubakar or not is a ‘moot point.
He said: “Asiwaju Tinubu and former vice
president Atiku belong to two different
political parties. Asiwaju will support his
party and the party’s candidate any day.
Moreso, Asiwaju’s position on the
presidency is very clear. He has said time
and again that for as long as that
patriotic leader, President Muhammadu
Buhari, is on the saddle or seeks to run;
he would not contest against him.
“He played a yeoman’s role in bringing
this government to power and he believes
President Buhari is confronting the
nation’s problems head on. He is not
saying there are no challenges but he has
always said he has implicit confidence in
President Buhari to tackle these problems.
“Those who are busy fishing for other
reasons for this undiluted support for
PMB are free to do so. It’s their opinion
and they are entitled to it.”
But in his response, Atiku who also
spoke through his media adviser, Paul
Ibe, said he has become the issue in
Nigerian politics because Nigerians have
seen him as the best option in the face of
the monumental challenges they are
facing and for which the current
administration has no solutions except
blame gaming.
He said: “As such, he will be the subject of
falsehoods and accusations. It comes with
the territory. These conjectures are
baseless and without foundation
whatsoever and I will not dignify them
with a further response. Nigerians are
jobless; poverty and hopelessness is rife.
“Our own Nigerian Bureau of Statistics
revealed that over 10 million Nigerians
have lost their jobs under this
administration even as unemployment
currently stands at 18.8 percent.
Meanwhile, the cost of everything from
food, to petrol, to electricity has gone up....follow us on facebook
