Tambuwal planned to overthrow President Buhari when he was ill – President's aide reveals


An aide to President Muhammadu Buhari has revealed that Governor Aminu Tambuwal, of Sokoto State, who recently decamped from All Progressive Congress to Peoples Democratic Party ( PDP) made attempt to overthrow President Buhari when the president was ill.



This was revealed by Lauretta Onochie, Special Assistant on Social Media to President Muhammadu Buhari, on Thursday via her Facebook page. She was speaking against the backdrop of Tambuwal’s defection to PDP.

Onochie said, “Tambuwal lied about the reason why he left APC, explaining that the Sokoto state governor left the ruling party after his plan to overtake Buhari’s tenure as President failed.

 “Governor Tambuwal of Sokoto state, yesterday, returned to his vomit. It was expected. The problem I have is that he lied about the reason for leaving APC.

“APC? A haven for the corrupt? And he returned to PDP? He is not an honourable man.
” He is a man who wished for, prayed for and desperately wanted the death of President Muhammadu Buhari. He almost physically threw out our government so he could “complete” Pres. Buhari’s tenure.

” Gov. Tambuwal abandoned Sokoto for Abuja in pursuit of the Presidency. He became disenchanted when God, received the prayers of Nigerians, disappointed him and kept the President alive.

” We would have shown some respects to him, had he told the truth of why he left APC, after all, there’s freedom of association in Nigeria and everyone has the right to stay honourable or eat their vomit. He chose the later.

“We thank him for choosing his old ways. It’s best for APC. We will restore politics of ideology in our nation. APC is undergoing cleansing. We are happy.”
