Dirty Fight: Atiku Bus Conductor Applying For Driver’s Job -Tinubu; Tinubu Is Like Drug Baron Wanting To Head Anti-Drug Agency – Atiku

By Gideon Njoku

Both the Presidential Candidates of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, and the All Progressives Congress, APC, Vice President Atiku Abubakar, and Bola Tinubu, respectively, are at each other’s neck. They are fighting dirty. Using innuendo, they are exposing the incompetence of each other to head NIgeria.

The Fight was sparked off by the Chief Spokesperson to the APC Presidential Campaign, Festus Keyamo, SAN.

Keyamo, the Minister of State, Labour, in an interview, had compared Atiku to a Bus conductor applying for the job of a driver. He said that Atiku only hangs on the achievements of former President Olusegun Obasanjo whose Deputy Atiku was for eight years. Atiku he said, has nothing to sell to Nigerians. Atiku, answered to Obasanjo, Keyamo submitted.

In contrast, Keyamo said his  candidate, Tinubu, called the shots in Lagos for eight years and has a string of achievements to show for it. According to Keyamo, Atiku cannot compare himself to Tinubu who was on the driver’s seat.

Not to be out-done, Paul Ibe, Atiku’s Spokesperson, in a tweet, likened Tinubu to a drug baron applying to head an anti- narcotics agency.

Ibe: “Tinubu can be likened to a drug baron applying for the job of head of anti-narcotics agency when other drug dealers are spending time in jail.”

The Presidential election holds in February, 2023.

The two men and Peter Obi, the candidate of the Labour Party, are the front-runners. However, in at least three opinion polls conducted – internationally and locally, Obi beat both men by a wide margin.
