The Governor of Plateau State, Simon Lalong, has said an
interim government which would halt the inauguration of Bola Tinubu would not
work under President Muhammadu Buhari.
Lalong stated this on Thursday after meeting with Buhari at
Aso Rock.
His comment came barely 24 hours after the All Progressives
Congress, APC and the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, challenged the Department
of State Services, DSS, to apprehend plotters of a possible interim national
government.
The Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC,
declared Tinubu as the winner of the February 25 presidential election ahead of
Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party and the Labour Party’s Peter
Obi.
However, after INEC’s announcement, Atiku and Obi rejected
the results alleging that the election was rigged.
With the legal battles ahead, there has been talk of an
interim government.
Lalong said: “Not under the administration of President
Buhari, who has been saying every time that ‘I believe in democracy. I believe
that after my tenure, I want to go and rest.’
“So those who are still talking about it (interim
government), I will say they are just dreaming. By the grace of God, Buhari is
going to bring a successor and that successor is already Asiwaju Bola Ahmed
Tinubu.”
