2023: APC National Chairman Accuses Tinubu Of Running One-Man Affair
The National chairman of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has accused the presidential candidate of the party in the next year general elections, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu of running a one-man affair.
This is coming barely one week after the presidential campaign council list was released.
In a strongly worded letter written and signed by the National Chairman of APC, Senator Abdullahi Adamu, to Tinubu who is still having a vacation in London, the party accused him of arrogantly ignoring their contribution to the composition of his Presidential Campaign Council.
Recall that Tinubu had on Friday 23-09-2022 unveiled a 422-man committee comprising political heavyweights and other notable members to pilot the various sub-committees of the campaign council.
The list of members released by Secretary of the Presidential Campaign Council, James Faleke, in Abuja, followed a series of postponements and conjectures about those who would be saddled with the task of leading the ruling party’s bid to retain power at the federal level.
The released list has President Muhammadu Buhari as Chairman, has Tinubu and the APC National Chairman, Abdullahi Adamu, as co-deputy chairmen.
However, the unpleased Chairman, Adamu wrote that the council membership list was not a true representation of the three-man committee set up to harmonize it.
The three-member committee comprised the national working committee comprising the National Organising Secretary, National Legal Adviser and Deputy Women Leader.
The letter read, “On behalf of the National Working Committee of the All Progressives Congress, I present my compliments to Your Excellency, and have the honour to convey to you, in truth and respect, the Committee’s opinion and position, regarding the above-mentioned subject matter, with a view to having a clear understanding about the respective roles and responsibilities of the principal organs of the Party charged with the duties of conducting the campaigns in the forth-coming general elections.
