Bola Tinubu & Atiku Abubakar. |
Only
recently, pictures emerged of the National Leader of the All Progressives
Congress, APC. Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu and the Presidential candidate of the
People’s Democratic Party, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar hugging and exchanging very
deep pleasantries at the airport in Akure and very liberal conversations ensued
as what would be wrong if the two bigwitts from the two main political parties
work together in 2019?
I
had written in the past of something I believe might happen between the
President, Muhammadu Buhari and Asiwaju Bola Tinubu if the former wins a return
to Aso Rock, especially with the signs some of us are getting concerning some
alliances against the person of the National Leader of the APC after the 2019
elections, which might be the beginning of the downfall (GOD FORBID) of Tinubu
in Nigeria.
Gist
have it that the president does not forgive, especially if made ridicule of,
even when it seem that things are working well, he still will find ways to deal
with whoever is not in his good books and our own Tinubu is one of those he is
waiting to show the way out and this is a statement on authority of insight and
must not be treated with levity.
The
president we hear is simply waiting for 2019 to come and go, knowing he
wouldn’t be seeking anybody’s assistance to win another election, will clamp
down on people who feel they are more powerful than he is and the first is
Tinubu, whom he needs now more than ever before to win the 2019 presidential
election, after-which he will be dealt with mercilessly, reducing his political
influence in Nigeria with arrest and public prosecution that will break the
record of his ant-corruption crusade.
Furthermore,
the person hatching the plot against Asiwaju Bola Tinubu is none other than the
current governor of Ogun State, Senator Ibikunle Amosun, who is very bitter and
aggrieved with Tinubu so much so that he can’t wait to have Tinubu’s political
dynasty completely crippled and sent to jail. This he plans to achieve after
the elections when the President would have no need for anyone, then he would
have been back to the president who until recently, was very close to him, a
closeness that span decades of togetherness as party associates before the
merger between Tinubu’s ACN and Buhari’s CPC and which Tinubu has somewhat,
destroyed.
It
is on record that in recent times, the relationship between the president and
Ibikunle Amosun has been on hold with the Adams Oshiomhole factor which has
given Bola Tinubu an inroad into Ogun State, an occurrence Amosun never wanted
to happen by all means, but with the candidate of the governor losing out
completely after the primaries conducted in two different locations and two
separate candidates emerging for one election in the state, plus the
recognition of the candidate of Bola Tinubu by the National Working Committee,
NWC of the party, jettisoning the governor who is supposed to be in control of the
party structures in his state. This has not gone down well with the governor at
all and he is waiting patiently to have a pound of flesh through no other means
than the president, in addition to being a complete spoiler against Tinubu and
this won’t happen nor begin now, but after the election when the president
would have won and with no one to pay allegiance to.
The
worry amongst all the loyalists and lovers of Tinubu is to have him safe and to
ask that treads with caution, even as a wise and brave man that he is, apply
more wisdom, because those waiting to have his head have had their plans sorted
out and waiting for the appropriate time to apply the “ACCELERATOR” on his
downfall.
So,
what would be wrong if Bola Tinubu repeats what he did to Nuhu Ribadu in 2011
against President Muhammadu Buhari in 2019 to safeguard himself from impending
trouble? This question is coming on the hill that even amongst those who throng
around him, are his big time enemies with whom the plan to have him ridiculed
is being hatched.
Yes,
Alhaji Atiku Abubakar is a personal friend and business associate of Tinubu,
infact, their love for each other knows no boundaries according to what I hear,
to the extent that the two had or still have joint business ventures they run
as partners, which politics or being in two different political parties can’t
break, after-all, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo supported President Muhammadu Buhari
who contested election on APC, a party jointed orchestrated by his sworn enemy
(so to speak), Bola Tinubu and heaven did not fall.
So,
will Heaven fall or the Earth climb up to the Heavens if Asiwaju Bola Ahmed
Tinubu decides to safeguard himself from impending political suicide to support
a candidate he is sure will protect his interest more come 2019 like he did in
2011?
What
if that happens? Is politics not about “PERMANENT INTEREST” anymore?
