Junaid Mohammed, a second
republic lawmaker, has asked Bola Tinubu, national leader of the All
Progressives Congress (APC) to be careful, saying there may be attempts on his
life or to arrest him.
Mohammed, who described Tinubu as
the most aggrieved member of the APC, said the elder statesman in in a
“difficult situation”.
Speaking during an interview with
THISDAY, Mohammed said Tinubu was unhappy with the tenure elongation of John
Oyegun, national chairman of the APC.
“I can assure you that Tinubu is
in a very difficult situation – in what can be described as a ‘double bind’,”
Mohammed said.
“I also know that he’s not happy
with the tenure elongation of the executive of the APC. He had been confronted;
he did not agree with and he did not accept the violation of the national
constitution and the violation of the APC constitution.
“But I also know that Tinubu is a
sitting duck; they can arrest him or attempt to take his life. He has to be
very careful because nobody will like to suffer death in the course of doing
the right thing.”
Muhammmed said President
Muhammadu Buhari was aware that he had offended Tinubu, yet gave him the job of
resolving conflicts in the APC.
He asked how Buhari could “ask a
man who is most aggrieved to go and reconcile people who are equally
aggrieved?”
“But you should also know that
the most aggrieved person in the APC government today is no other than Tinubu,”
he said.
“One of the biggest slaps he got
was the appointment of Fashola as minister. It was Tinubu who built APC, not
Buhari or Fashola.
“If Tinubu had not bent over
backward to accommodate Buhari’s camp, there would have been no APC and there
would have been no Buhari presidency.
“How can you ask a man who is most
aggrieved to go and reconcile people who are equally aggrieved? It is
hypocrisy. Buhari knows he has offended Tinubu. He knows he has publicly spited
Tinubu.”
Mohammed said even if the
president is given more than eight years, “he will not be able to do anything”
for Nigeria.
“He’s simply incapable. He’s too
incompetent and unprepared to preside over Nigeria,” he said.
“If he’s selected as the anointed
presidential candidate of his party, if he doesn’t win the election, it would
be rigged in his favour.
“And if that were to happen, I
want to assure you that from the day they announced the election results until
the end of the four years there would be no peace in this country because
people would not tolerate the incompetence, illiteracy, greed, nepotism, and
corruption. There’s a limit to their patience.”
Mohammed criticised the president
and the federal lawmakers over the fragile security situation in the country.
The said members of the national
assembly are predominantly immersed in their personal affairs and “too
irresponsible” to see to the provision of adequate security for Nigerians.
