‘Tinubu’s afraid of being exposed’ – says Atiku’s camp
The campaign organization of the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Atiku Abubakar, has disclosed the reason why the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Bola Tinubu, is running away from national debate.
The Atiku/Okowa Presidential Campaign Organisation revealed that Tinubu was running away from national debates for the fear of being questioned by Nigerians.
The mouthpiece of the campaign organization, Kola Ologbondiyan, has said the APC chieftain is avoiding Nigerians might ask him over his alleged record of corruption, reported massive looting, obvious non competence, and ethnic discrimination.
Ologbondiyan: “Tinubu is also aware that he cannot face the public to answer questions bordering on his past, particularly, the question on his ancestry, the Alpha-Beta tax saga; as well as his alleged stranglehold on the business, politics and lives of Lagosians from 1999 till date.
“He is afraid of being exposed of fleecing Lagos State for eight years through multiple and harsh tax regimes with nothing to show other than rulership by brawl, breeding of touts and raising criminal street gangs, only to turn around now to attempt to claim the achievements of succeeding governors as his.
“Is it not strange that Tinubu, who claims to be a progressive, is dodging debate, a hallmark of progressivism?”
This came following the absence of Tinubu at the Arise TV debate for presidential flag bearers.
Atiku, who was also no where to be found at the debate programme, sent his vice presidential candidate and Governor of Delta State, Ifeanyi Okowa, Tinubu did not have any representative at the debate session.
While reacting to his absence, the former governor of Lagos State said he was busy with other assignments; hence could not make it to the debate session.
