Tinubu Plotting To Be President, Says PDP by aceguy1(m): 9:17pm On Feb 27, 2015
Presidential Campaign Organisation of the Peoples
Democratic Party has alleged that a former
Governor of Lagos State, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, is
plotting to become the President of Nigeria
through what it called the back door.
It said the plot by the former governor, who is a
stalwart of the main opposition party, the All
Progressive Congress, was to take over as
President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria in the
event that the APC candidate, Gen. Muhammadu
Buhari(retd.), wins the March 28, presidential
election.
Director of Media and Publicity of the PDPPCO,
Chief Femi Fani-Kayode, made this allegation at a
press conference in Abuja on Friday.
He nevertheless said the campaign team of the
PDPPCO wished Buhari a long life.
Fani-Kayode said skeletal information available to
the PDPPCO suggested that the Vice Presidential
candidate of the APC, Prof Yemi Osinbajo, was
picked by Tinubu and “forced to take an oath” to
resign his appointment six months into the new
cabinet, should the APC win the elections.
After his resignation, the PDPPCO further alleged
that the party would field Tinubu as his
replacement and to wait for the health condition of
Buhari to worsen to Tinubu’s advantage.
He asked Buhari to “watch his back,” adding that
the “gang-up” against him and Nigerians was
situated on the calculation that his health would
deteriorate and lead to his death, paving the way
for the expected “new vice president” to take over
power.
Fani-Kayode said, “It should baffle well-meaning
Nigerians why Tinubu has decided to draft Buhari,
despite his age, acrimonious background and
questionable health status, into the presidential
race whilst ensuring that his stooge, Prof
Osinbajo, was foisted on the general as vice
presidential candidate.
“The reason is that the PDPPCO wishes to use
this forum to expose the ungodly plan by Tinubu
to seize the presidency of Nigeria by subterfuge.
“You will recall how Tinubu wanted to be running
mate to Buhari in spite of the nationwide
resentment for Muslim-Muslim ticket that he and
Buhari planned to foist on their party men and
women.
“Senator Tinubu had justified the (planned) ticket
by saying that competence was the important
thing and not the issue of religion.
“But when he and Buhari could not push through
the agenda within the APC, he (Tinubu), after been
given the opportunity to nominate a vice
presidential candidate, decided to prop up his
stooge in the person of Prof Osinbajo.
“Now, the real reason Tinubu nominated Osinbajo
has been made known to us and we hereby offer
a public service to the Nigerian people by drawing
national attention to it. Credible pieces of
information at our disposal indicate that Tinubu
has perfected plans to come to power through the
back door.
“Tinubu, according to our information, has
compelled Osinbajo to swear to an oath that after
six months in office, he would resign as the vice
president, in the unlikely event that their party
wins. The wicked plot, as laid out by them, is to
force Osinbajo to resign for Tinubu to be
nominated by Buhari as his replacement.”
Fani-Kayode added, “The ultimate objective of this
plot is to ensure that Tinubu becomes President.
The script is simple: given the questionable
health of Buhari, Tinubu, who is desperate to be
president for his own selfish reasons, will simply
bid his time in the evil expectation that Buhari will
not be able to go the whole hog.
“How wicked can those that hatched this plan be?
How unfair can they be to the North, to Buhari
and to Nigerians? We wish Buhari long life.
Senator Tinubu’s dangerous plan is about getting
power. This is sad. No thoroughbred Yoruba man
or indeed Nigerian wants to get power through the
misfortune of another person.
“But this is the perfidious path that Tinubu is
passing through. This is repugnant.”

i am sure nigerians are now convinced jonathan and his campaign team were in the know about fayose's buhari death wish advert despite their denials. How is this issue based? There are issues on economy,security,unemployment,infrastructure to be debated on. But jonathan's campaign will rather engage in beer parlour gist. If they are sure he is sick let them provide cogent proof showing he is unfit and state so categorically rather than spreading unfounded, idle and unintelligent gossip. The opposition has not gone personal on jonathan,nobody has called him sterile,nobody has called patience barren because nobody plays God, so the party in power should face issues and let God alone decides when we will join him. Enough.of these death wishes. Was Azazi sick? Was the then governor of kaduna sick?but God who decides decided. So buhari will not die until he has fulfilled his mission on earth. LETS STOP THE HATE CAMPAIGN. And ARGUE CONSTRUCTIVELY ON ISSUES
