Bola Tinubu, presidential candidate of the All Progressives
Congress (APC), has taken a swipe at Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic
Party (PDP) and Peter Obi of the Labour Party (LP).
Tinubu spoke on Tuesday at the flag-off of the APC
presidential campaign at Rwang Pam township stadium in Jos, the Plateau
capital.
The former governor of Lagos described Abubakar, PDP
presidential candidate, as “wrong theory”, and Obi, standard bearer of LP, as
“disobedient.”
“One of them, I don’t want to call their names. Is it Atiku?
Atilukated what? Wrong theory. Mark it down. Wrong theory for Atiku,” he said.
“Is it Obi? He is
disobedient. He lives in Lagos, not in Anambra. He doesn’t know the road back
to Anambra, so we will chart him another course.”
Taking a further dig at PDP, he said: “They want to come
back. Tell them that a dead fish cannot be sweet in any soup.”
Addressing President Muhammadu Buhari, Tinubu said when
history is written, it would be kind to him.
“Nigeria will not
sink in the time of APC. When history of this period is objectively written, it
will smile upon you. Don’t worry about what they say. This history will still
be written by us,” he said.
“Hope is back and renewed. They thought they could bury the
hope, but I recall from the speech I made in 2015. When there was a problem
around WW2, the British were sinking. They turned to their general Winston
Churchill. We were in trouble from 2011 up till 2015 and we turned to our
general, Muhammadu Buhari.
“We put him where he embarked on the rehabilitation of the
country and redeeming the nation’s promise. What did he do? He started by
dismantling strange flags in our LGAs. We say ‘thank you, sir’.”
