Northern APC group asks Bola Tinubu to apologize
over his 1997 comment ‘I don’t believe in One
Nigeria'

A group of All Progressive Congress (APC) party
members in the North Central zone have asked Bola
Tinubu, the APC national leader and presidential
aspirant for the 2023 election to apologise to
Nigerians over his comments in 1997 that he does
not believe in one Nigeria.

The group who formed a forum to pursue
emergence of the President from North Central
region said even though,Tinubu’s comment was
decades ago it is now worth revisiting since he
declared his intention to run for the President of the
country come 2023.



Speaking on behalf of the Foum on Monday,
January 24, in Jos, Plateau State capital, Saleh
Mandung Zazzaga said;

“In ThisDay publication of April 13th, 1997,
Tinubu granted an interview in which he was
quoted as saying, ‘I don’t believe in One
Nigeria’ . And since that interview has
resurfaced as a result of his presidential
ambition declaration, people have began to
raise eyebrow and asking damaging questions.

“So many people have been calling and
mocking us (the party), saying that if Tinubu
does not believe in One Nigeria, how comes he
has now believe in one Nigeria to the extend
that he wants to contest for the Presidency of
a Nation he did not believe in.

“This has not only be agitating the people’s
mind, but the members of the APC as well, and
it is not good for the well being of the party as
the Nation counts down to the 2023 general
election. As a national leader of the party, he
just have to speak to Nigerians on that issue,
and that will make him a true nationalist and
democrat.

“The most honourable thing for Tinubu to do is
come out and appologise to Nigerians on that
remarks which he made before this democratic
dispensation which began in 1999. And he
should as well explain the rationale of the
interview to Nigerians and point out if he was
misquoted or not. Whatever his explanation
would be, at least it will calm down people’s
nerves and save the party from being projected
in a bad light.

“Such apology will not only project him as a
true leader of the party or as presidential
aspirant but it will prove that he his a man of
honour and dignity and someone who will take
responsibility for his words, deeds and actions,”
he said.

If you want to hide anything from a foolish African man,, simply put it in prints, and in black and white

Why not read the body of the News Article before making silly statement

Nigeria is not and would never be One Nation, Just like United Kingdom and Great Britain are also not a Nation, UK has splinter ethnic Nations like England, Wales, Scotland and Ireland with different cultures and people coming together to form a country



.

Abi he don apologize ni.

Dem go PE reach ope

Ok

Tinubu cannot be president of the country he doesn't believe in

This northerners are smart politically

Reverse psychology.. When and if he does that which shows desperate, the next question would be "What changed" ?

Igbo blogger I'm not surprised at all.go online you will see the hate this people instigate against the God chosen Yoruba tribe.

Atleast smarter than Ibos..

Or why else did Atiku promise Ibos not to contest 2023 because he wants to serve for 4 years and and over power to Ibos in 2027

Or why else has Ibos served North in PDP since 22 years and not even get a Vice President slot

If you are a Yoruba and you still thinking igbo like you but hate Tinubu I pity you. Ask yourself why igbo hate Tinubu you will agree with me that nothing but the hate is for Yoruba generally.

The hate by igbos against Yoruba must tame right from next year.

The North should know that no body in the southern Nigeria believed in one Nigeria except politician who do so for political interest, every body have realized that to be in the same country with northerners is a great error, Yorubas are the ones holding Nigeria together, the day they will agree with Igbo that will be the end of Nigeria, they will soon have no choice and very good reason to agree as the north mumu push them to do so,
