*Wants Bisi Akande To Head Caretaker Committee *Accuses Oyegun Of Sabotaging His Reconciliation Efforts

Temidayo Akinsuyi, Lagos

The crisis rocking the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has worsened following allegation by a member of the National Working Committee (NWC) that Asiwaju Bola Tinubu asked them to resign as a way of finding a lasting solution to the intractable crisis rocking the party.

This followed on Thursday a scathing letter written by Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, chairman of the party’s reconciliation committee, to Chief John Odigie-Oyegun, national chairman, accusing him of sabotaging his efforts in reconciling aggrieved members of the party.

The former Lagos State governor, whose relationship with Odigie-Oyegun has been on the downward trend since the conduct of the Ondo State governorship primary of the party in 2016, said rather than providing him the necessary support needed in his assignment, the party’s national chairman is undermining his presidential mandate by constituting himself as an obstacle towards the reconciliation process.

He specifically mentioned Kogi, Kaduna, Kano, and Adamawa as the key states where Odigie-Oyegun is working to frustrate his efforts in reconciling aggrieved members of the party.

Tinubu, who copied the letter to the president, vice-president, Senate president and speaker of the House of Representatives, accused Odigie-Oyegun of contravening the spirit of the discussions both of them had at the party secretariat when President Muhammadu Buhari gave him the assignment of reconciling aggrieved members.

In the letter, dated February 21, 2018, Tinubu said “disappointment greeted me when I discovered that you had swiftly acted in contravention of the spirit of our discussions. Instead of being a bulwark of support as promised, you positioned yourself in active opposition to the goal of resuscitating the progressive and democratic nature of APC”.

Tinubu said while Odigie-Oyegun mentioned Kogi, Kaduna, Kano and Adamawa as places affected by serious party issues, he has taken it as his own personal ambition to thwart his presidential assignment in these key states.

He accused the chairman of rushing to Kogi State to unilaterally inaugurate officials “parallel to the officials already heading the state chapter of the party”.

“While this may place you in significant affinity with those parallel officials you handpicked, this machination suggests no improvement in the welfare of the party in Kogi or at the national level”.

Tinubu said Odigie-Oyegun apparently seeks “to undermine my mandate by engaging in dilatory tactics for the most part. When forced to act, you do so in an arbitrary and capricious manner”.

Speaking further, Tinubu said even if Odigie-Oyegun had personal qualms with him, it is his right as a human being but “you have no such right as the chairman of this party. The party belongs to all of its members”.

While not turning down the assignment, he, however, warned Odigie-Oyegun to refrain from taking any more “improper unilateral decisions with regard to the national and state chapters of the party”.

He reminded Odigie-Oyegun that the assignment was given to him by Buhari, stating that “in furtherance, I request that you make available to me the status reports and all the pertinent information regarding the state chapters without further delay”.

Speaking with DAILY INDEPENDENT on the genesis of the current crisis between the two party stalwarts, a member of the party’s National Working Committee (NWC) said Tinubu during the closed door meeting he had with them during his visit to the party secretariat had asked them to resign as a way of finding a lasting solution to the intractable crisis rocking the party.

“I am not surprised by the current letter written by Asiwaju Tinubu. During his visit to the party secretariat, he had asked us members of the NWC led by Chief Oyegun to resign but we told him that it is impossible since our tenure will end in June.

“We later understood he wanted to install a Caretaker Committee to be headed by Chief Bisi Akande, thereby having his structures in charge of the party. That I can tell you is the genesis of the crisis”, he said.

Tinubu brought this upon himself by supporting oyegun against Ikimi at the convention.

Ok

Asiwaju foolishly backed buhari, thinking he would get more power and influence, he neva knew he was digging a pit for himself.
Buhari has humiliated & dealt with asiwaju so tey d guy don cast, he is now a mockery in peppersoup joints.
jagaban would regret ever supporting buhari.
asiwaju's fate is sealed and he knows it. That's why he is now accusing oyegun of sabotaging him.
There is more humiliation for asiwaju, he would pay dearly for being an asslicker.

Potopoto people

The vultures are about to meet their water-loo.

I warned Tinubu not to accept that assignment but he refused and not the die is cast for his mega disgrace in 90 days

Hmmmm, yeye dey smell

Confusion in the camp of the change chanters.

Buhari inadvertently handed over to Tinubu a platform to exert his own pound of flesh from Oyegun.

Sai baba...APC has turned upside down

Scatter scatter don begin.
Tinubu knows Buhari/APC can't win.
He's getting ready to dump the sinking ship.

OK, let's settle the fight


Click *Like to support Tinubu..


*Share for Oyegun..

Almost all the APC big wigs are playing anti party politics.
It is only a matter of time the propaganda party will collapse and fractions returning back to regional politics.

Carry aggrieved leader to settle aggrieved members, you get aggravated results.


Mere battle for supremacy, avenue for total fractions.

PMB should have reconciled the two leaders first, the tell the chairman if his intentions.

Tinubu will end up as the UNDERTAKER IN-CHIEF of Apc. The fall of Apc will be worse than Humpity Dumpity fall.

Tinubu is about to be buried politically at the National scene. Those of us who saw it warned him then. He is the Afonja of the Yoruba race

It's not fair how Tinubu is bullying Oyegun.
Some of us criticized Dino Melaye when he was bullying Tinubu.

Now Jagaban is doing the same.

God would send the spirit of confusion into the camp of enemies of Nigeria....and they shall kill themselves.

Who is Tinubu to under-rate Oyegun?
Who is Oyegun to dare Tinubu...?

Oya fight! !

Our prayers are working after all

I couldn't have said it better. This is clearly my judgment.

Tinubu just wants to use this 2kobo assignment he was given to actualize his own personal agenda.
Eventhough I know oyegun is one of the worst party chairmen ever and has been pursuing his own selfish agenda too,I like the way he is putting Tinubu in his shoes.
Tinubu has lost a lot of goodwill and political capital having had d rug pulled from under his feet by d likes of Ogun state governor,Ibikunle Amosun, Fashola,Fayemi etc and now wants to use this job to selfishly garner lost political leverage.
He is heading for another disgrace from the Oyegun camp and likelihood of his being forever drained of any political base he has left.
He deserves no pity and none should be granted him.

I am happy you can see it as it is bro. Your sentiment is clearly what I share. Tinubu deserves to be humiliated beyond even his own imagination. He is a useless azzlicker, betrayal and the Afonja who is about to be smoked by Gere Alimi!

I wonder if Buhari consulted Oyegun before appointing Tinubu to reconcile Waring parties

Why can't Tinubu learn a lesson or two from Tony Anenih ,the so called Mr.fix it of PDP ?

APC need to sit down and define the role of Tinubu, if you want to make him BOT chairman so be it...but forget about referring to him as "party leader" there is nothing like such, that what makes him think he can undermine the chairman

Two southerners trying hard to fool themselves while their nothern partrners and master watch in mockery...

Joke of the 21 century ...

gbam!!! Nothing more nothing less.....

This assignment was just to give tinubu some false self importance before the big disgrace. It was foretold

He shouldnt have accepted the assignment in the first place but he thought he could use the privilege to punish Oyegun and co
