Tinubu Clarifies He Didn’t Criticize Buhari About Fuel Shortages Or Naira Redesign, Just Advice

Bola Tinubu, the presidential candidate of the ruling All Progressive Congress (APC), has criticized in certain circles the idea of President Buhari’s government over the ongoing fuel shortages and Naira reorganization.

Bayo Onanuga, head of media and public affairs at the APC Presidential Campaign Council, said in a statement that the opposition People’s Democratic Party (PDP) is in cahoots with his five columnists, causing avoidable suffering to Nigerians. He said he was trying to help the unfortunate people who were there. achieve political objectives.

He tackled rivals for issuing a “knee-jerk response, derailing from the issues, distorting his views at the Abeokuta rally, to create a wedge between him and President Muhammadu Buhari.”He added: “When the guilty are afraid of being uncovered, they try to push back with red-herring

“Asiwaju Tinubu was only drawing government’s attention to the sabotage being carried out by some fifth columnists in the system, possibly working in cahoots with the PDP.

“The CBN officials, including Governor Godwin Emefiele, have said many times that enough new naira notes have been supplied to the banks, yet our people complain that they have not been able to get the new notes.

“In recent days, many ATMs are either not working or when working, they are dispensing the old notes, just a few days to the January 31 deadline.

“Similarly, Asiwaju Tinubu is aware of the salutary efforts by President Buhari to end the fuel queues, by chairing a 14-man panel. Yet the queues and agony continue.”

“For a presidential candidate, who cares about the suffering of our people, he has a duty to warn government that its efforts to make life better for Nigerians are being sabotaged on several fronts.

“Our presidential candidate only re-echoed what is well known and acknowledged, even by President Buhari himself at different fora: That there are fifth columnists in and outside of government, who often throw spanners in the works against good intentions and programmes of the government.

“How does an advisory genuinely made by Asiwaju Tinubu to protect and create goodwill for the government of his party become an attack? It can only be so in the jaundiced view of the PDP.”
