Festus Keyamo, a spokesman for the Tinubu/Shettima Presidential Campaign Council, has urged the Peoples Democratic Party to apologize for its undemocratic comment against the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Bola Tinubu.
The Punch had reported that Tinubu was accused of being desperate to become president by hook or crook.
The desperation of Tinubu to be President of Nigeria at all cost, by all means, and by crook and hook, was evident in his charge during his abysmal outing.
He said a man who played dumb when asked critical questions suddenly roared into life threatening to seize power.
Melaye asked, “How else will power be snatched through the ballot box if not a resort to violence, electoral violation, and other unconventional methods of grabbing power?”
Keyamo in a press statement titled, ‘Press statement by Tinubu/Shettima presidential campaign council on the accusation of inciting violence against Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu’, replied to the PDP.
He said that instead of concentrating on the disaster currently afflicting their party and praying to God to just survive as a going entity after the elections, we are confronted by such irresponsible statement.
The Minister of State for Labour and Employment said that Tinubu was a thoroughbred democrat and one of the major architects of democracy.
“He should be the very last of the presidential candidates to be accused of undemocratic conduct or underhand dealings in the electoral process.
The poor showing of the PDP was caused by the same characters who issued the statement.
They are doing the same thing again and expecting a different result.
Keyamo wanted the party to apologize for their comment.
