The Minister of Works and Housing, Babatunde Fashola has
disclosed how the three main political opponents gave away victory to the
President-elect, Bola Tinubu.
Fashola said Tinubu’s three main opponents gave him victory
by splitting from the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, after the 2019
presidential election.
Recall that the Labour Party, LP, presidential candidate,
Peter Obi; Atiku Abubakar of PDP; and Rabiu Kwankwaso of the New Nigeria
Peoples Party, NNPP, were members of the former ruling party before they
decamped.
However, Fashola said their separation before the 2023
presidential election led to Tinubu’s victory.
“Politics is a game of numbers and numbers have arithmetic
equations – additions and multiplications. APC was adding and multiplying. PDP
was dividing and subtracting.
“So, the major contenders against us in this election –
NNPP, PDP, LP, their candidates, were in the same party in 2019. They lost by
almost four million votes.
“So, they handed away the presidential ticket by dividing
their powers. Not only did they divide, they now subtracted with the G5
governors. So, it was bad mathematics,” Fashola told Channels Television.
