had questioned the loyalty of Buhari to Tinubu, saying the president
was not throwing his weight behind the APC candidate.
The Presidency has claimed President Muhammadu Buhari is in support of Bola Tinubu's presidential ambition.
This comes after Kano-based elder statesman, and human rights
activist Tanko Yakasai had claimed that Buhari is not backing the
presidential ambition of Tinubu.
Recall that during an interview on Control TV, Yakasai had
questioned the loyalty of Buhari to Tinubu, saying the president was not
throwing his weight behind the APC candidate.
Yakasai said, “What I realise is that I’m not sure if Buhari is happy with the candidature of Tinubu. That is the issue.
“He is the APC because he is the President elected on the
platform of the APC but is he committed to Tinubu’s presidency? I have
my doubt.”
“I’m not sure if it’s APC or not, but definitely, the
personality of Tinubu doesn’t make him happy from my assessment of the
situation,” Yakasai added.
But reacting in a statement on Wednesday titled, ‘On Alhaji Tanko
Yakasai’s questioning of the President’s support of APC at the
forthcoming election,’ the Senior Special Assistant on Media and
Publicity, Garba Shehu, said Yakasai’s statement conflicts with the
President’s recent appearances in party campaign rallies.
He said, “Alhaji Tanko Yakasai is unknown to the All
Progressives Congress. Everyone is entitled to their view, but what we
do know is that his insight in a recent interview does not come from
within the party or the President’s team.
“His support for Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu is welcome, although it is difficult to see what value it will add.
“He is right to highlight his experience as a senior citizen
and a leader in government, and ability to reach out across divides are
strong foundations for the highest office.
“But Yakasai’s questioning of the loyalty of President
Muhammadu Buhari stands in sharp contrast to the actions of the
President. Only on Monday, he was out at a rally in Bauchi supporting
the flag bearer of the party.
“Presidential duties permitting, he is scheduled to make further appearances at campaign events in the coming weeks.
”His support for the party’s candidate, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, is unquestioned.”
Speaking, Shehu asked Nigerians not to take Yakassai seriously, adding that “perhaps, times are hard, and the old man needs a bit of help.”
“If this wasn’t on TV, Yakasai’s unwise comment on the issue would have been dismissed as a misquotation. But he was live on TV.
