Why I haven’ t decided on 2023 , Tinubu reveals , says time not right
Buhari has no rift with Asiwaju , Presidency declares
Sacked Oshiomhole- led NWC yields to pressure, dumps court action
Ex - party chair surrounded by bad advisers –Caretaker committee


Following insinuations that the recent developments in the All Progressives Congress were indications of a rift between the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari ( retd.) and the National Leader of the APC , Asiwaju Bola Tinubu , Afenifere chieftain , Chief Ayo Adebanjo, has said he knew the President was allegedly deceiving Tinubu all along.
Adebanjo said the national leader was also deceiving the President as he described the APC as a gathering of incompatible persons. He argued that there was no ideology binding the party members together and that it was all about sharing offices and power .
Even though the Presidency said there was no rift between Buhari and Tinubu , many commentators described Thursday’ s decision of the National Executive Committee of the APC to dissolve its National Working Committee as a blow to Tinubu , who is believed to be pro-Adams Oshiomhole , the sacked chairman.
There have been widespread claims that Tinubu , a former governor of Lagos State, was eyeing the presidency in 2023, and that the recent development in the party was a way of truncating his ambition .
Adebanjo said , “ I have worry for him ( Tinubu ). He knew all these things but he relied on Buhari and worked to make him the President. I said it before publicly that Buhari is deceiving Asiwaju and Asiwaju is deceiving Buhari. Everybody is trying to use the other. Why can’ t Tinubu hammer on restructuring knowing that this was what brought Buhari to office?
“ I have been in this game for 70 years. So, many of those who are talking now were not born then . That is the truth – even Buhari was a toddler. He is now 74. Each time I tell you , why should Tinubu , the Vice- President (Yemi Osinbajo ) and all those who were in Alliance for Democracy run to the APC ? Why are they hesitating now to stand for restructuring ? They can’ t talk .
“ All the things I am telling you now – it is not the first time. I said both Jagaban ( Tinubu ) and Osinbajo should get out of the APC . I said it openly . It is a disgrace and disservice to the Yorubaland. So, what is happening now shows there is nothing to bind them together.”
Why I haven’ t decided on 2023, Tinubu reveals, says time not right
Meanwhile , Tinubu on Saturday broke his silence on the leadership crisis that rocked the party in recent times.
In a seven - page statement , Tinubu dismissed allusions that the dissolution of the NWC by the NEC at a meeting , presided over by the President and attended by top government officials and party chieftains, was targeted at his supposed presidential ambition in 2023.

Tinubu , who is not a member of NEC , stressed that he had yet to make a decision on 2023 given the health and economic crises occasioned by the COVID- 19 pandemic, which had infected no fewer than 24, 077 and killed 558 persons in the country as of Saturday.
He said rather than engage in politicking around 2023, he had devoted the last few months to thinking of policies that could help the nation during the present exigency.
Tinubu , who lost a close ally and former governor of Oyo State , Senator Abiola Ajimobi , to the virus on Thursday, stated that he found it distasteful talking about what he might do or not do in three years’ time ( 2023) when there is a national emergency . “ 2023 will answer its own questions in due time, ” he added.
The statement titled, ‘ Becoming the party we were intended to be ’, partly read , “ To those who have been actively bleating how the President’ s actions and the NEC meeting have ended my purported 2023 ambitions , I seek your pity. I am but a mere mortal who does not enjoy the length of foresight or political wisdom you profess to have. Already , you have assigned colourful epitaphs to the 2023 death of an alleged political ambition that is not yet even born .
“ At this extenuating moment with COVID -19 and its economic fallout hounding us, I cannot see as far into the distance as you . I have made no decision regarding 2023 for the concerns of this hour are momentous enough.
“ During this period, I have not busied myself with politicking regarding 2023 . I find that a bit distasteful and somewhat uncaring particularly when so many of our people have been unbalanced by the twin public health and economic crises we face .
“ Personally, I find greater merit trying to help in the present by offering policy ideas, both privately and publicly, where I think they might help .”
Tinubu added that he had toiled for the party as much as any other person and perhaps more than most , and that like himself, no member of the party should have problem with making personal sacrifices .
He , therefore, appealed to the sacked NWC members and all party members to sheathe their swords .
… asks Oshiomhole to take responsibility for mistakes made
In the meantime, Tinubu , who commended the former NWC members for the party’s “ great and important victories” under their leadership, especially in ensuring Buhari’ s re-election , asked Oshiomhole to accept his mistakes.
Tinubu said he believed strongly that Oshiomhole tried his best but that his peace moves came late.
He added, “ Those who disagreed with one another stopped trying to find common ground. Attempts were made to use the power of executive authority to bury each other. I must be blunt here . This is the behaviour of a fight club not the culture of a progressive political party.
“ Some members went against their chairman in a bid to forcefully oust him . In hindsight, his fence -mending attempts were perhaps too little too late.
“ I believed and continue to believe that Oshiomhole tried his best. Mistakes were made and he must own them. Yet, we must remember also that he was an able and enthusiastic campaigner during the 2019 election . He is a man of considerable ability as are the rest of you who constituted the NWC . ”
Tinubu added that he hoped the disagreements in the party would be resolved but that order, party discipline and mutual respect “ went out of the window ” , leading to unnecessary court cases, which the President; the former interim chairman , Chief Bisi Akande; and himself condemned respectively .
“ With lawsuits so numerous , one needed a spread sheet to keep track , President Buhari has reasonably decided that he had seen enough . I do not lament his intervention or its outcome. I lament that the situation degenerated to the point where he felt compelled to intervene .
“ President Buhari is much more than a mere beneficiary of the party. He is one of its founding fathers . The APC does not exist in its current form without his singular contributions. That is not opinion ; it is undisputed fact.
“ President Buhari has done what any parent in his position and with his authority would do . The President has spoken and his decision has been accepted . ”
He called on Oshiomhole to support the party ’s candidate , Pastor Osagie Ize - Iyamu, in the September 19 Edo State governorship election .
He added, “ In this, Oshiomhole has a crucial role to play. I encourage him , now, to return to Edo State to energise the campaign for the election of Pastor Ize- Iyamu. ”
Buhari has no rift with Asiwaju, Presidency declares
The Presidency has maintained that there is no rift between the President and Tinubu .
The Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, in a statement in Abuja on Saturday, said the requests Buhari put to the party ’s NEC which were unanimously approved were aimed at saving the party, which at the time faced an existential crisis.
In arriving at the decision, he said the President followed the constitution and carried everyone along.
He said while Buhari’ s action had been widely accepted by lovers of democracy and party members, the Presidency was concerned that some people were seeing it as a “ Buhari - Tinubu showdown .”
“ Nothing can be farther from the truth , ” he said .
Shehu said in the formation of the APC , Buhari and Tinubu were both inspired by democratic norms , national interest and not by partisan motivations .
These , he said , were the qualities that have made them move past cynical distractions .

We all know ooo.

We just want him to continue fooling himself.

He's just an over hyped brown teeth clueless man.

I always laugh to his matter.
Let me stop here.

Can Tinubu defeat Atiku in a presidential election?

Everyone with brain knew. Only the brown teeth man and his zombies that didn't know.

Tinubu, the Jagaban of borgu, the greatest political strategist..... , Afenifere shivered at the mention of his name BAT

He retired obasanjo, Atiku, gej to political graveyard

The only man that is capable of making some people from the other side of the republic to wail uncontrollable forever...

He successfully planted the president after three failed attempt..


Tinubu has achieved more than being a president.......

Lol...Buhari even joined those who massaged his ego with the title 'APC National leader'. In Buhari's mind he was just saying this one na APC national leader for Southwest zone alone

Bro’s nothing to decide , they have decided for u long time ago. Just shift go one side

Even me know

Clear symptoms of dementia, delusions of grandeur

the bitter truth is that even tinubu and all his supporters here on NL ...knew very well that buhari was deceiving them but they chose to live in self denial...
the funny side is even though its Crystal clear like the biblical teke teke mene upharsin ( in obhiahagbon's voice ) they still don't want to believe tinubu has been discarded like the chaff of corn ...

Agba ti de. Baba ti d'agba

Afenifere are Ipob tool.


Tinubu must be president in 2023.if APC didn't give him ticket,then he
will destroy it and form another sophisticated party.



South east can't stop him.


North can't stop him.

All these expired politicians, you've been in politics for 70 years and you couldn't win your polling unit in the last election.


BTW, which useless Afenifere does this old man belong? Tinubu has killed the real Afenifere since 2003 and buried the cops in a concrete grave. Today's Afenifere are doing Almajiri from PDP looters.




I AM DONE TALKING

God make me popular for a good thing like Asiwaju bola Ahmed Tinubu. The most mention daily in Africa is Tinubu.

We know right

This baba should stop taking pills for Tinubu's headache. He told us before he never support Tinubu's ambition then why is he disturbed that Buhari betrayed him. Please always sit on a side in a matter so you don't talk from both sides of your mouth making you inconsistent with your own ideals.

Bola Tinubu is a goner, the level of his brown teeth have increased since this crisis

Pa Adebanjo is still mad at Tinubu for been political correct in 2003 when OBJ came to Afenifere begging for support which the so called leaders of AD fell for just because of the money OBJ came with.
Tinubu told them all not to trust OBJ but they called Tinubu names. And at the end of the day OBJ rigged 5 western states for PDP. Since then AD as a party has become its own shadow, and Tinubu has grown to be a politician to be reckoned with in the country.
In 2015 this same Afenifere supported GEJ when they saw dollars and we all know the end story.
Till people like Pa Adebanjo and co will say goodbye to this world they will always attack Tinubu same thing goes to Bode George.
Can Pa Adebanjo tell us if OBJ deceived them in 2003 or not.

Anytime there is issue in Apc. List of people that will write anti Tinubu articles.

Femi fani kayode

Reno o mockery

Femi aribisala

Farooq kperoogi

Afenifere

Bode George

And yinka odumakin.

E remain yinka odumakin to write his own useless anti Tinubu article.

You are what you just describe, when someone opinion doesn't resonate with you, you result to insult instead of contesting the main issue with facts, you started the insult, no wonder you are familiar with those symptoms because it is an hereditary that runs in your family...

Pained and fustration has lead your depressed life to hallucinatory existence, you are a living ghost, the better you know this, the earlier for you..

Tinubu the slayer of PDP

The annihilator of Jonathan

The tormentor of Atiku

The destroyer of Saraki


The nightmare of Igbo Iyanmirin pigs


Tinubu you are too much Jo

Guess he is denying the reality that is obvious to all and sundry.2023 will prove who was right or wrong.

See this sad fool

Yes, very right. Only an experienced deceit will know. To Chief Adebanjo and his fellow Afenifere chieftains, this looks like the same way Afenifere, Ohanaeze, JNI even the so called CAN and other miscreants deceived Goatluck Jonaddaft and collected billions from the ineffectual buffoon.

One thing is sure, Tinubu has never lost in any form since our return to democracy. Even when Afenifere, Obasanjo, Atikuchukwu, Ohanaeze, IPOB and other miscreants colluded together against the Jagaban Borgu, the Jagaban still humiliated them all.
