The Chairman of the newly setup Caretaker Committee of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Alhaji Mai Mala Buni has said that Bola Ahmed Tinubu is still a leader and founding father of the party.
He made these comments while responding to reports that the emergency National Executive Committee, NEC meeting convened by Victor Giadom in Aso rock on Thursday, was part of a plot to whittle down Tinubu’s influence over the party.
“Bola Tinubu is one of our leaders and a founding father of this party, I want to say nobody is happy with the current situation under which the party is operating and we are all working together to rescue the party.”
“So, this decision was taken by NEC to address some of the issues, so nobody is targeted and it is against nobody.”
“Tinubu is a founding father of this party and one of our leaders. That is all I can say for now,”.
Buni also revealed that his major focus as chairman of the committee was to ensure that there is synergy in the party and the current crisis becomes a thing of the past.
“It is all about team play, I am a team player and I have a capable team that can work with me and if you don’t manage crisis, obviously crisis will manage you. so, I won’t allow any crisis to fester henceforth.”.
A welcome development. You started well. all hands on desk, for the party to move forward is very important. God bless Nigeria
