…Advises APC candidate to collapse campaign
OSAS EMMANUEL
The Atiku/Okowa Campaign Organisation has described the performance of the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, at the Chatham House on Monday as nothing but a national disgrace.
The Campaign bemoaned what it called Tinubu’s pathetic display of vacuity as he allegedly went blank on the world stage in tragic display of emptiness and inability to personally address questions that were put to him on economy, security and other challenges facing our nation.
Campaign spokesperson, Kola Ologbondiyan, in a statement yesterday said the party finds it very appalling that a candidate aspiring to be the President of a nation as complex as Nigeria exhibited an embarrassing inability to coordinate his own thought process to the extent that he could not personally think through issues and address them but had to direct questions put to him, including those on his health and policies to others to answer.
The Atiku / Okowa Presidential Campaign, therefore, submitted that Asiwaju Tinubu has confirmed to Nigerians and the world that he has no business contesting the 2023 Presidential election.
“He is grossly incompetent, completely unprepared for leadership and intends to transfer the onerous task of leading our nation to proxies and a cabal that did not seek votes from Nigerians.
“Of course, Nigerians cannot afford to have a President who cannot take responsibility to lead but intend to shift burden to others, apparently to find scapegoats to blame for his inevitable failures.
“The APC Presidential Candidate ended up becoming a butt of international joke as he could not provide any lead on the critical issues of economy, security, youth development and foreign policies, despite notes passed to him at the event by his handlers,” said the Campaign.
It recalled that it had earlier cautioned Asiwaju Tinubu and his handlers not to embarrass the nation by exhibiting his constant gaffes on the International stage at Chatham House.
“Our Campaign counsels Asiwaju Tinubu’s handlers to stop embarrassing him by always pushing him to make public appearances, even when they are aware of his many incompetences. What Nigerians expect is for the Tinubu/Shettima Presidential Campaign to apologise to the nation and stop embarrassing their principal with poorly scripted appearances.
“Now that the APC Presidential Candidate, Asiwaju Tinubu, has confirmed his unpreparedness and lack of capacity on the world stage, we urge that he should immediately collapse his campaign, stop wasting resources, go home and rest,” it further stated.
