The national leadership of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has interpreted as unpleasant the outburst of a national leader of the party, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, against President Muhammadu Buhari.
APC National Chairman, Senator Abdullahi Adamu, revealed this, Saturday afternoon.
Tinubu was campaigning in Abeokuta on Thursday when he said he has the right to lead the nation after assisting President Buhari to win the 2015 election.
Many viewed his oration as aggressive toward the President.
But in a statement on Friday, Tinubu affirmed that he carries President Buhari in high esteem.
He said his remarks were not implied to hurt the feelings of the President and had been taken out of context.
The former Lagos State Governor said reactions suggesting that he had been rude were sensational and inaccurate.
However, while speaking with reporters at the APC National Secretariat in Abuja on Saturday, Senator Adamu noted that the apology later offered by Tinubu was not reasonable.
He also said the party has requested the judgment in favour of statutory delegates, meaning they will not participate in the upcoming presidential primary.
The APC Chairman declared that all presidential aspirants are planning to convene with President Muhammadu Buhari tonight. -Vanguard and Channels TV.
