Bola Tinubu was instrumental in making Muhammadu Buhari President in 2015.
So also, was Vice President Atiku Abubakar.
Same as Rt. Hon. Rotimi Amaechi.
Equally, Engr Rabiu Kwankwaso was part of the process.
The list is endless……
But when people juxtaposes history to an individual, it becomes suspicious and selfish.
For instance, Tinubu supporters believe Jagaban singlehandedly brought PMB to power in 2015 but that is a fallacy.
Three jets were used for campaigns in the lead to the general election, Tinubu provided one and the other two were from two party individuals (one still in the APC and the other now a big fish in PDP)
The argument against the unpopular opinion and notion that Jagaban brought PMB to power is tested here within the realm of morality and common sense. If Tinubu truly singlehandedly made Buhari PRESIDENT in 2015 under APC with 15.4 million votes, then why didn’t he made Nuhu Ribadu President of his ACN party, in 2011, when ACN polled 2.1 million votes? In that same election of 2011, Buhari CPC polled 12.2 million votes. This is a statement of fact and intent.
In summary, Bola Ahmed Tinubu saw a saleable candidate in the person of Muhammadu Buhari, rallied around him with other political parties to strengthen their chances of winning PDP in 2015. If not that Atiku And Kwankwaso earlier left APC, the duo would have a major say and stake as 2023 general election is concern.
More often than not, I skip some of the comments for the singular respect and admiration I have for the Jagaban. He has what it takes to be Nigeria’s next President, all thanks to his hard work, dedication and perseverance to strengthen democratically values across Nigeria.
But remember, he is not the only one that has done good for APC. If he wins, I will support and campaign for him, if he doesn’t, Nigeria will move on.
