Bola Tinubu, a national leader of
the All Progressives Congress (APC), has asked former President Olusegun
Obasanjo to keep quiet and retire to his farm in Ota, Ogun state.
Tinubu said this at the
presidential rally which held in Maiduguri, the Borno state capital,on Monday.
Speaking to a crowd of supporters
that thronged Ramat Square, the location of the rally, Tinubu described
Obasanjo as an “expired leader” that is not to be trusted.
He was reacting to a recent
comment by the former president that the Buhari-led administration was planning
to rig the general election.
“You can hear the other expired
leaders like Obasanjo, ranting and lying. Don’t believe him, don’t trust him.
He is expired,” he said.
“With the sign of senility
experienced by our dear brother, Uncle Obasanjo, I think Ota should be enough a
retirement place to keep quiet.”
This is not the first time the
former Lagos state governor would be hit Obasanjo for attacking Buhari.
Early in 2018, when Obasanjo
wrote a letter advising Buhari not to contest for reelection, Tinubu had described
the letter as “bad belle”, an informal, Nigerian slang that suggests one hates
or has bad wishes for another person.
“I remember my grandmother used
to send me to a letter writer in the post office of those days, so somebody is
writing letters these days, a letter of politics, as if they’ve never been
there before. Bad belle letters,” he had said.
