The All Progressives Congress, APC,
presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu has
replied the leader of Yoruba Nation Self-
Determination struggle, Professor Banji
Akintoye.
--
Akintoye had accused Tinubu of nursing a
selfish interest ahead of the 2023
presidential election.
He added that Yoruba
people will not vote for Tinubu because he
doesn’t care about them.
Reacting, the APC presidential candidate
said Akintoye’s remark was malicious and
unwarranted.
Speaking through the Director of Media and
Publicity of the APC Presidential Campaign
Council, Bayo Onanuga, Tinubu vowed to
resist any attempt to derail his presidential
campaign.
According to Tinubu, Akintoye’s comment
was misplaced and divisive.
The statement reads, “Our attention has
been drawn to an unfortunate, misdirected,
misplaced and divisive statement credited
to Prof Banji Akintoye, in which his group
threatened to pull the South West out of
Nigeria.
“We find it quite preposterous the
Professor’s sweeping outlandish
accusation that Bola Ahmed Tinubu is only
pursuing his PERSONA interest in running
for the presidency of Nigeria. Such a
statement is malicious and unwarranted.
“It is pertinent to state that Tinubu is
contesting for Nigeria’s presidency because
of his readiness to render unflinching
service to Nigerians and because of his
abiding faith in a strong, united, and
prosperous Nigeria where every man and
woman, regardless of their ethnicity and
religious beliefs, can be proud and
prosperous.”
He said most of the issues raised by
Akintoye had been addressed in his Action
Plan.
