Alleged Feud Between Adamu, Tinubu, A Hoax – APC

By Ayodele Oni

 The All Progressive Congress, (APC) has explained that the relationship between the National Chairman of the party, Senator Abdullahi Adamu and Presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu is cordial.

“The National Chairman of our Party and our Presidential Candidate maintain cordial and effective communication channels, and enjoy full liberty of open and frank conversations on matters of interest to the Party and our Presidential Campaign. “

National Publicity Secretary of APC, Felix Morka, in a statement on Thursday, maintained there is no rift between the two leaders of the party.

There is a report in the Social Media to the effect that Adamu and Tinubu disagreed over the list of Campaign Council Members, which led to postponement of the inauguration of the council.

Morka, in the statement said: “Our attention has been drawn to a “DRAFT” letter in circulation purportedly written by His Excellency, Senator Abdullahi Adamu, the National Chairman of our great Party,  addressed to His Excellency, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the Presidential Candidate of our great Party, expressing  dissatisfaction over the recently released list of the Presidential Campaign Council (PCC).

“To be clear, the “DRAFT” letter did not emanate from the Party. An UNSIGNED letter that marks itself as a ‘DRAFT’ cannot and should not be attributed to its purported author.

“The National Chairman of our Party and our Presidential Candidate maintain cordial and effective communication channels, and enjoy full liberty of open and frank conversations on matters of interest to the Party and our Presidential Campaign.

“As such, an unsigned  “DRAFT” letter of the kind in circulation is patently unnecessary and of no qualitative value to engagement between the Party and the PCC.

“We will not be distracted by the wishes and actions of detractors that wait gleefully but in vain for some kind of crisis to erupt between the Party and the PCC.

“We stand united, as a Party, in our resolve and commitment to execute a focused and issue driven campaign to persuade Nigerians to renew our mandate in next year’s general election.”
