Candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu, has visited President Muhammadu Buhari in Daura, Katsina State, after his accusing some unnamed people of trying to frustrate his election with fuel scarcity and naira redesign.
Tinubu was on Wednesday in Abeokuta, Ogun State, during a campaign rally when he made the accusation.
The APC presidential candidate visited the President, who was in Katsina on a two-day working trip.
Tinubu was said to have been accompanied to Katsina by three APC governors and a governorship candidate.
The APC standard bearer had said at Abeokuta rally, “Hide the petrol, hide the naira, we will still vote! We will win.
“Even if you change the ink on naira notes, what you want will not happen. We will win. That umbrella party will lose. We will take this government from them — saboteurs that are dragging power with us.”
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) had subsequently described Tinubu’s comments as an indirect criticism of the Buhari-led administration.
However, the APC presidential campaign council said the former Lagos governor did not blame the president for the situation — but only sought to warn him of saboteurs working for the PDP.
The governors who accompanied Tinubu for the visit to Buhari are Aminu Masari of Katsina, Abubakar Bagudu of Kebbi, and Babagana Zulum of Borno.
Dikko Umaru Radda, the APC governorship candidate in Katsina, also joined the governors on the visit, TheCable reported.
Recall that in June 2022, Tinubu also in Abeokuta narrated how he helped Buhari to become president, an outburst that came following reports that the President would not support his emergence as APC presidential candidate.
