The Atiku/Okowa Campaign Organisation has accused the Presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Ahmed Tinubu, of sending his campaign officials to unleash hate speech against prominent leaders in the North and other parts of the country in a desperate bid to incite Nigerians, cause insurrection and disrupt the 2023 general elections.
The campaign noted that Tinubu is now deploying top members of his campaign, including a serving governor, to insult and condemn prominent Nigerian leaders as a ploy to trigger a crisis in the polity.
The Campaign Organisation, in an issued statement by its spokesperson, Kola Ologbondiyan, pointed out that Nigerians can still recall how Tinubu recently in London declared to his followers that political power is not going to be served in a restaurant, it is not served a la carte. It is what we are doing; It is being determined; you do it at all costs; fight for it, grab it, snatch it, and run with it.
The campaign further said that Nigerians can recall how Tinubu, in APC Campaign Rally in Abeokuta, Ogun State, made very wild allegations, inciting his followers to see the February 25, Presidential election as a revolution.
The campaign further said: It is therefore not in doubt that having failed in every parameter of assessing a credible presidential candidate and having realised that he cannot win in the election, the APC Presidential Candidate is desperately seeking to cause anarchy, mayhem, bloodletting, violence and a forcible overthrow of our democratic system not minding the lives and safety of millions of Nigerians.
It is clear that Tinubu is pathetically driven by an entitlement mentality, and as such, he does not care about the unity of our country. In any case, Tinubu had since announced that he does not believe in Nigeria as a nation. It is therefore obvious that he is in the Presidential race for purposes that are not for the wellbeing of Nigerians; thus his readiness to set our nation on fire for his selfish purpose.
The campaign also noted that a two-term governor can make himself a willing tool just because of personal aggrandizement.
