A former presidential candidate and chieftain of Nigeria’s main opposition, the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Dele Momodu has accused the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, under president Bola Tinubu, of being careless.
Momodu wondered why the Tinubu administration resorted to attacking the immediate past President Muhammadu Buhari, who according to him, is their biggest brand.
News360 Info reports that political leaders have been frequenting the Kaduna home of the former President.
The National Chairman of the APC, Abdullahi Ganduje had led the party’s National Working Committee, NWC, members in a visit to Buhari at his residence in Kaduna State.
The visit took place on Friday, a few hours after opposition leaders met with the former president.
Recall that former Vice President Atiku Abubakar had earlier on Friday led a delegation, including Nasir el-Rufai, former governor of Kaduna, Aminu Tambuwal, former governor of Sokoto and Isa Pantami, former minister of communications, to Buhari’s residence.
Speaking on Arise Television on Monday evening, Momodu said he does not understand how a sitting President should be attacking his predecessor from the same political party.
He said, “I believe the APC under Tinubu has been quite careless. How does a political party wake up and start attacking their biggest brand, Buhari?
“How does a president wake up and start attacking his immediate predecessor from the same political party? Now you can see that twice in the last few weeks, the APC leadership has been running to see Buhari.”
