National leader of the All Progressives Congress, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, said President Goodluck Jonathan offered him the opportunity to serve as the Vice President in an Interim National Government, which he rejected and that has spurned the recent attack on his person…
In a statement released by Tinubu’s media office on Thursday, said Jonathan blamed him for the successful merger of the APC and the momentum the APC presidential candidate, Maj.Gen Muhammadu Buhari (retd.) was gaining:
“From what can be gathered through informed sources, the PDP and Jonathan Presidency had recently tried to fracture the APC by offering Tinubu the position of vice President in an interim government if he would agree to part company with the popular Buhari. Once Tinubu rebuffed the offer to participate in the interim scheme, the presidency decided to change tactics. It would no longer try to entice Tinubu with sugar but would now move to silence and if necessary neutralise him.The former governor said the recent hate documentaries televised were part of the desperate attempt by Jonathan to discredit him – But the Director of Media and Publicity of the Peoples Democratic Party Presidential Campaign Organisation, Femi Fani-Kayode, has described all these allegations as baseless and false, Punch reports.
“The APC National leader has caused President Jonathan’s team countless headaches this campaign season, his declining the interim government offer is just the latest.”
According to Fani-Kayode in a statement, he said:
“These allegations are baseless and false. These people have become prisoners of their own delusions and they have become victims of their horrific and terrifying hallucinations.”So who is telling the truth in all these election brouhaha???
