Tinubu denies rift with Adamu, says critics free to throw jabs

The Presidential Candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, has denied any rift with the party’s national chairman, Senator Abdullahi Adamu.

Tinubu spoke at the party’s national secretariat in Abuja on Wednesday shortly before he met with the National Working Committee (NWC) of the ruling party.

He admitted to have read the rumoured cold war in the media.

The former Governor of Lagos State said the rumoured rift was manufactured to suit a particular purpose.

His words: “To the rumour manufacturers, I read in some papers about a disagreement between myself and the chairman. That was a very big lie. They didn’t know that we have come a long way. The big masquerade dance not in the cage but in the market square.

“And that is what Adamu use to be, full of wisdom. We were governors together, before God put us together on this project again. He is going to deliver as the chairman of the party for me to become the President of Nigeria. And I am very confident of that.

“They can say whatever they want to say, throw all the jabs that they want. We are a party strongly determined to fulfil our dreams of turning Nigeria into a very progressive, highly developed, prosperous country.”
