Buhari Should Reciprocate What Tinubu Did For Him In 2015 – Mumuni
  • PublishedJanuary 22, 2023

Ambassador Abayomi Nurain Mumuni, 2011 gubernatorial candidate of the defunct Congress for Progressives Change (CPC) in Lagos State, has enjoined President Muhammadu Buhari to reciprocate what Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu did for him in 2015.

Mumuni, a member of the Tinubu/Shettima Presidential Campaign Council’s Security and Intelligence Committee, claimed that Tinubu needs greater backing from Buhari than he is currently receiving from the president.

The APC chieftain made this disclosure in a statement made available to journalists through his media aide, Rasheed Abubakar.

Recall that in 2003 and 2007, Buhari ran for president under the umbrella of the All Nigeria People’s Party (ANPP), but he was defeated in both elections . On the platform of the Congress for Progressive Change (CPC), he unsuccessfully sought for the same position in 2011.

Buhari won the 2015 presidential election after a number of political gladiators, including Tinubu, united with a number of political parties to form the APC in 2014.

He stressed that Tinubu is yet to enjoy such support from President Buhari, especially now that the election is less than a month away.

Mumuni said, “Buhari should reciprocate what Tinubu did for him in 2015. We expect more support from Buhari than what we are getting.

“Asiwaju carried Buhari, backing him like a baby learning how to crawl in 2015 and 2019, to win both elections. Basically, we are expecting President Buhari to reciprocate the gesture that was extended to him during that trying period.

“Myself and Buhari have gone into polls during the days of ANPP and CPC, and we both lost the elections woefully. There was no election held in the days of ANPP, CPC that I was not at the polls, so what are we talking about? Buhari should do better than what we are getting in APC of today.

“However, Asiwaju will surely win the election, that’s to cut the long stories short, because Bola Tinubu has what is required to deliver good governance than those clowns masquerading around the country soliciting for support or vote”.
