Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose, has called on Nigerians, especially northern leaders, to save All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, General Muhammadu Buhari (rtd) from former Lagos State governor, Senator Bola Tinubu, and his cabal in the party.
The governor, who said he was worried that Tinubu and his group were pushing Buhari too much because of their selfish interests, said “Nigerians should appeal to Tinubu and his cabal to allow Buhari attend properly to his health.”
In a statment by his Special Assistant on Public Communications and New Media, Lere Olayinka, Fayose said: “Since last week Thursday that Buhari appeared for less than two hours at the Chatham House where he said his doctors certified him fit and that he was returning to Nigeria for the ‘final onslaught on the PDP,’ he has simply disappeared from the public glare.
“Isn’t it strange that someone, who is contesting an election in 28 days’ time could afford to stay outside the country for going to two weeks?
“Buhari confessed that he actually saw his doctors. Why did the APC cabal lie that he never visited any hospital, even going to the ridiculous and criminal level of using pictures taken in Abuja to authenticate the claim that Buhari had a television interview in London?
“As I have maintained, the same cabal that was involved in the Yar’Adua saga is also involved in the packaging of Buhari and Nigerians must save the man from these people, who are only interested in using him.”
While maintaining that Buhari was not the candidate of the North, Fayose said: “Shouldn’t it interest Nigerians, especially the northerners that only Malam Nasir El- Rufai was a northerner among those who attended the last Thursday arrangee Chatham House event?”
