An All Progressives Congress chieftain and former National Secretary of the defunct Congress for Progressive Change, Alhaji Buba Galadima, has slammed the National Chairman of the party, Abdullahi Adamu for threatening Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
Galadima, who claimed to be one of the signatories to the agreement that formed the APC, said Adamu was in the PDP when the likes of Tinubu were working hard to ensure that the merger succeeded.
Galadima stated, “Well, who is the APC chairman? Where was he when some of us were fighting for Buhari? Where was he? He should remember what he did to us in 2003. Is it because Buhari has forgotten?
“If Buhari recollects what the APC national chairman did to him, he will not even ever allow him to shake his hand, let alone make him chairman.”
Galadima maintained that Buhari indeed agreed to support Tinubu’s Presidential aspiration as far back as 2014 but it was unfortunate that the President had betrayed him.
The Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, could not be reached for comment on Sunday.
However, a top aide to the President said Galadima’s claim that Buhari promised to support Tinubu’s Presidency was hogwash.
