Buhari, Tinubu Not At War, APC BOT Member Reveals by sayyid(m): 10:28am On Jul 06, 2015
A member of the All Progressives Congress
(APC)’s Board of Trustees, Alhaji Gambo
Magaji, has commented on speculation
surrounding the internal strife between the
party leader, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu and
President Muhammadu Buhari.
In an interview with Vanguard, Magaji stated
that there was nothing wrong with the leaders
of the party, especially in the wake of
Tinubu’s absence at the National Executive
Council (NEC) meeting of the party with the
Nigerian president last week.
Buhari, Tinubu Not At War, APC BoT Member
President Muhammadu Buhari and Asiwaju
Ahmed Tinubu… are they really not at war?
He explained that despite the seeming breach
of the party’s position regarding the National
Assembly elections, it had decided to accept
the leaders that emerged from the
controversial election in order for peace to
reign.
The BoT member said that the party took the
decision in the hope that the Senate
president, Bukola Saraki, and the House of
Representatives speaker, Yakubu Dogara,
would reciprocate the gesture and abide by
the position of the party that brought them to
power.
Magaji told Vanguard in an exclusive interview
in Abuja, yesterday, that both men had since
been acknowledged and accepted by the
party and that they were expected to toe the
party’s line as a mark of respect and
recognition of the party.
He said: “To the best of my knowledge, there is
no quarrel between Buhari and Tinubu.
“The fact that the former governor did not come
for NEC should not be taken to mean that he
has a quarrel with the President or the party.
“The party’s NEC is not like the BoT and anyone
who is not a member can decide whether or not
to attend.”
On the existing disagreement over the
emergence of the National Assembly
leadership, Magaji affirmed that both Senator
Bukola Saraki and Yakubu Dogara, the Senate
president and speaker of the House of
Representatives respectively, have been
pardoned for their supposed misdeeds.
He therefore averred that the party hopes the
two warring members should obey the party’s
wishes.
According to him: “it is our belief that since the
party did not question the emergence of Saraki
and Dogara by formally writing to them as
Senate President and Speaker of the House of
Representatives, they should understand that
they have been accepted by party.
“What is expected from them is that they would
also show respect to the party and begin to toe
its line so as not to give the impression that
they are working against the party that brought
them to power.
“The position of the party is that the leadership
of NASS should do what the party wants and
nothing more, if they are loyal members of APC.
That is the minimum expectation.”
President Buhari has also said that the party
is supreme and that members of the APC
should respect the wishes of the party ahead
of personal ambitions.
