Kofoworola Bucknor: Tinubu Dividing Afenifere Over Presidential Ambition by nairavsdollars(op): 7:01am On Aug 23, 2019
Temidayo Akinsuyi, Lagos

Senator Kofoworola Bucknor- Akerele, a former Deputy Governor of Lagos State on Thursday said the ambition of Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, former governor of Lagos state to become President led to his splitting of pan Yoruba socio-political organisation, Afenifere.

Speaking in an exclusive interview with Daily Independent, Bucknor- Akerele said Tinubu knows he cannot achieve his ambition based on the stance of the Afenifere leaders who are very principled.

She also said she fell out with Tinubu because she refused to cooperate with him to upstage the leaders of the group and hijack the organisation.

“What led to the split of Afenifere is Bola Tinubu’s presidential ambition. He wants to be President of Nigeria and he didn’t see how he could achieve that under the Afenifere as it was because Afenifere has a very strict rule of operations”.

“They don’t just make anybody anything. They study you for years and see how you behave before they even let you go for councillor”.

“And you will see that in the old Western region. Because of that pattern, we had the best governance in Nigeria at that time. We had competent people, not people who came with money that was either stolen or from dealing in drugs and from there came into governance. That is not possible under Afenifere and Tinubu knows that” she said.

True talk....and she suffered during her time as deputy with Tinubu and Tinubu knows how to 'wicked' people...imagine allowing Femi Pedro work as deputy and just before leaving office immediately put someone else just because he fell out with Pedro, denying the guy ( allegedly) of his pension and benefits.

Bukola saraki made it known when he left the APC , that Tinubu confided in him that he is not happy with Buhari's administration , but is just playing along for the sake of his 2023 ambition !
It's becoming real on a daily basis , Tinubu 's unwavering support for buhari , must amount to something for those who know Tinubu !
He knows he has the west in his pouch , and he wants buhari to get him the north as well , but what tinubu doesn't know is most reasonable Nigerians like myself would rather vote bobrisky , instead of him !!!
