The National Leader of the All Progressives Congress, Bola Tinubu,
today said that President Buhari’s trustworthiness is what distinguishes
him as the candidate to beat in the 2019 presidential elections.
Speaking at a function in Lagos today, Tinubu said unlike the PDP
presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, President Buhari is not a thief.
“President Buhari is a straight and honest man. Leave a Naira on the
table with Buhari in the room. You will find the Naira on the table when
you return. When Buhari says ‘yes’ or ‘no,’ you know where he stands.
He means what he says, no more, no less. With Atiku, things are more
nuanced. This shows he has no vision for the nation except the naked
pursuit of power for the naked use of that power” he said
The APC National Leader said that Atiku had his chance to shine as
Vice-President when he controlled the privatisation programme of the
Obasanjo government but abused this assignment and helped squander
billions of dollars on power generation that did nothing but extended
the nation’s darkness.
“We should not reward him by giving him another eight years. As the
PDP candidate, he is now the leader of an avaricious horde that seeks to
reattach its mandible once again to the public wealth and forever lay
siege to our nation’s future. Nigerians will do well not to pay them any
attention,” he said.
