The Kwara State chapter of the All Progressives Congress, APC, has warned the party’s Deputy National Publicity Secretary, Yekini Nabena to stop his campaign of uninformed comments against the Senate President, Bukola Saraki.
It cautioned Nabena to stay within the mandate of his new position and stop making unsavoury comments against the Senate President.
The state arm of the party said this in response to Nabena’s claim that Saraki should declare his stand, following the breakaway of Reformed-APC from the ruling party.
In a statement by its spokesperson, Sulyman Buhari, the party said Nabena should first clarify if he was speaking on behalf of APC’s National Working Committee, NWC, or he was “running errand” for some “faceless and mischievous elements who are his paymasters.”
The statement reads, “The Kwara APC has taken note of the immature display and lack of decorum by one Yekinni Nabena in a statement he issued today calling the Senate President names.
“Nabena needs to first clarify if he was speaking on behalf of the National Working Committee of the APC or representing some faceless and mischievous elements who are his paymasters.
“Instead of embarrassing himself with his meaningless diatribe that demonstrates his lack of decorum and immaturity for the position he has accidentally found himself, Nabena should focus on understanding what his current position entails.
“This is necessary because his preparedness and capacity have definitely been called into question by his antics. He definitely cannot use Saraki’s name to get cheap popularity and buy relevance.
“At the right time, our leader, the Senate President, who remains one of the founding fathers of the APC and a deciding factor in our national politics today, will make his decision known to the whole world when he is ready.
“As a grassroots politician who believes in carrying everyone along and works in the best interest of the people at the State and national levels, Saraki does not owe an unknown factor like Nabena any response or explanation. Instead, at the right time, I am sure that his friends, supporters, associates, all Nigerians and the entire world will know where he stands on issues regarding 2019 elections.
“Saraki that we know does not hide to play his politics. He plays in the open. Those who feel uncomfortable with his rising profile will continue to bell-ache for a long time to come. In fact, we enjoy the way he is making his opponents fret and suffer insomnia by his silence.”
