Lagos State Chapter of the All Progressives Congress has called on ‘political desperadoes’ who are behind the recent media attacks on its National Leader, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu to stop because no power of the tongue can vitiate him.
In a statement by the Lagos spokesman, Joe Igbokwe, the APC alleged that the political desperadoes are members of the Peoples Democratic Party.
The statement read “Lagos APC condemns in strongest terms this calculated attempt to bring Tinubu down to their miserable level and to judge the consummate leader of men by their horrible and dubious standards.
“Before the 2015 presidential elections our well-respected national leader and President Buhari were subjected to vicious attacks and debilitating assaults just to bring them down but they failed woefully. President Buhari and Tinubu ran away with resounding and unprecedented victory on March 28, 2015.
“Politically they have been decimated and relegated to the background, economically their business of stealing government money in billions has been checkmated and blocked and socially they have been ostracized and rejected by Nigerians.
“These fraudsters and morally bankrupt nonentities know that it is impossible for them to get to Tinubu’s intimidating, illustrious and glorious personality, so they resort to blackmail and character assassination to bring the sage, the colossus and the leader of men to the miserable level.
“Having failed to stop the Buhari-Tinubu tag that rescued Nigeria from the forces of decay, corruption, and rot, having failed to distract and derail the recovery of Nigeria from the forces of decay, the desperadoes are now trying a sly tactics of instigating Buhari to go after Tinubu for the crimes of wrecking and looting Nigeria blind for 16 years when Tinubu’s only feel of power was eight glorious years he ruled Lagos.
“It is obvious that these dying forces of evil are on a futile effort to parry their 16 years of wreckage and who else to bear the brunt but a Tinubu who has come to personify a living nightmare to the dying PDP.
“ Tinubu remains a well-respected political figure in Nigeria, Africa and the world today and anybody who thinks in his wildest imagination that a strong and powerful image built for nearly 50 years can be destroyed by the antics of a foolish constituency and men without honour must be jokers.
“Every leader writes his own history through his own deeds and choices. Tinubu has become a working history in Nigeria by his actions and deeds for nearly 50 years and no power in the tongue of any man can vitiate this even in this age or the age to come.”
