The All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate for president, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, takes pride in his historic electoral triumphs.

The APC candidate was reacting to remarks made on the APC’s Muslim/Muslim presidential ticket by Babachir Lawal, a former Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF).

In a recent interview, Lawal expressed open skepticism about Asiwaju Tinubu’s chances of winning the presidency in 2023 while running on the same religious platform.

He said that the APC presidential candidate disregarded Christians in northern Nigeria by choosing a Muslim as his running mate.

However, Asiwaju Tinubu dismissed the assertions of the former SGF as conjecture.

Asiwaju Tinubu projected that he would win the election for president with the support of the APC and Buhari through Bayo Onanuga, the director of media and publicity for the APC Presidential Campaign Council.

Asiwaju says, “Mere conjectures, very laughable projections. Asiwaju has never been on the ballot and lost any election.

“With 22 states under APC control, with the incumbent president’s backing, Asiwaju is heading for a landslide victory.

“Let Babachir Lawal deal first with the division in his renegade group instead of pontificating on the election’s outcome.

“This man, who is amplifying our religious difference with his gang, is from Hong Local Government Area of Adamawa State. He could not make Buhari win the council in the 2019 election, even though we had a Christian with the Buhari ticket,” he said.

Babatunde Fashola (SAN), minister of works and housing, has encouraged APC leaders and members to stop criticizing the party’s rivals and instead focus on convincing people to back the party’s candidates in the general election of 2019.
