By Gideon Njoku

The Presidential Candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Bola Tinubu,  has raised the antenna of his indirect attacks on President Muhammadu Buhari as the Presidential Campaign races to the end of the rope.

He boasted that it was the South-west that collaborated with the North to put Buhari in power, and must succeed him. “We are not bast..ds, you cannot frustrate us”, he said.

He said this during his Campaign Rally in Osogbo, Osun State and noted that the scarcity of fuel and Naira will not have any effect on his victory on February 25, 2023.

Tinubu: “We corroborated with the North to elect a President of Northern extraction. This time, we (South-west) will succeed them.

“Nobody smashes the seed from a palm kernel by being gentlemanly. We are not bast..ds. We were the ones that put them there, and we will be the ones to succeed them.

“If you say you want to frustrate us, we have come a long way, and no matter what you do, we will remain steadfast.”

In the past couple of weeks, Tinubu has been attacking President Buhari’s policies, especially the timing of the new Naira redesign and the biting scarcity of fuel. He says they were targeted at him to frustrate his ambition.

On Wednesday, he had a backing from the Kaduna State Governor, Mallam Nasir el-Rufai, who disclosed that there are forces in Aso Rock working against the emergence of Tinubu as the President.
