Fayose to Nigerians: Save Buhari from Tinubu’s manipulation

Governor Ayodele Fayose of Ekiti State has called on Nigerians, especially Northern leaders to save the All Progressives Congress (APC) , Major General Mohammadu Buhari (rtd), from former Lagos State governor, Senator Bola Tinubu, and his cabal in the APC.
The governor, who said he was worried that Tinubu and his cabal were pushing Buhari too much because of their selfish interests, pleaded: “Nigerians should appeal to Tinubu and his cabal to allow Buhari attend properly to his health.”
Speaking through his Special Assistant on Public Communications and New Media, Lere Olayinka, the governor said; “since last week Thursday, that Buhari appeared for less than two hours at the Chatham
House where he said his doctors certified him fit and that he was returning to Nigeria for the ‘final onslaught on the PDP,’ he has simply disappeared from public glare.”
He queried: “Isn’t it strange that someone who is contesting an election in 28 days time could afford to stay outside the country for going to two weeks?
“Buhari confessed that he actually saw his doctors, why did the APC cabal lie that he never visited any hospital, even going to the ridiculous and criminal level of using pictures taken in Abuja to authenticate claim that Buhari had a television interview in London?
“Like I have maintained, the same cabal that were involved in the Yar’Adua saga are also involved the packaging of Buhari and Nigerians must save the man from these people, who are only interested in using him to assume power.”
While maintaining that Buhari was not the candidate of the North, Fayose asked; “shouldn’t it interest Nigerians, especially the northerners that only Malam Nasir El-Rufai was a northerner among those who attended the last Thursday arrangee Chatham House event?
“During the APC primary, delegates from the North voted for former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar and Governor Rabiu Kwankwaso. Only delegates controlled by Tinubu, Governor Rotimi Amaechi and Senator Bukola Saraki voted for Buhari.
“In appreciation of Tinubu’s role, Buhari gave him (Tinubu) the sole right to choose his running mate, with Tinubu still being rumoured to be interested in the Vice President position that he gave his surrogate, Prof Yemi Osinbajo.
“Also, the APC confirmed yesterday that Buhari’s campaign is being funded by Tinubu and Amaechi.
“All these point to the fact that Tinubu and his cabal have a sinister agenda against the North, which they want to use Buhari to achieve.
“Our leaders in the north should therefore intervene and free Buhari from the APC cabal now because he needs to take proper and adequate care of himself medically.”
