The All Progressives Congress irked by Ahmed Bola Tinubu’s outburst against President Muhammadu Buhari may punish him.
The National Chairman if the party, Senator Abdullahi Adamu disclosed this on Saturday, saying the national leader of the APC and a presidential aspirant may be punished over his comment “against” President Muhammadu Buhari.
Tinubu had made comments which were considered injurious to the President when he visited Abeokuta, capital of Ogun State on Friday to meet with delegates to canvass for votes ahead of the rescheduled national convention.
Tinubu said Buhari wept for losing election three times, until he came to rescue him.
“After three election loses, Buhari wept and said he would not contest again”, but I went to Katsina and asked Buhari to run again and that he would win because he and others were on the president’s side.
The outburst triggered reactions across the country against him with some wondering if Tinubu is God.
Briefing newsmen at the APC headquarters in Abuja on Saturday, Adamu said, “We may punish him (Tinubu) for his utterances against the President.”
Adamu also said no presidential aspirant had been disqualified from contesting at the party’s presidential primary slated for Monday.
