The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Senator Abdullahi Adamu, said on Saturday that the party might consider sanctioning Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, National Leader of the party, over his comment “against President Muhammadu Buhari.”
Tinubu had, on Wednesday, taken a dig at Buhari during a meeting Ogun State delegates, boasting that without him, Buhari would not have been president.
He said after three electoral failures, Buhari wept and said he would not contest again, but he (Tinubu) went to Katsina and asked Buhari to run again and that he would win because he and others were on the president’s side.
The comment had sparked negative reactions across the country, with many accusing Tinubu of likening himself to God.
Briefing newsmen at the APC headquarters in Abuja, on Saturday, Adamu said, “We may punish him (Tinubu) for his utterances against the President.”
Adamu also said no presidential aspirant had been disqualified from contesting at the party’s presidential primary slated for Monday.
