Oredola Adeola

The Presidency has declared that there is no rift between President Muhammadu Buhari and his strong ally, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu. This was contained in a statement released on Wednesday by Garba Shehu, Senior Special Assistant to the President.

According to the statement, the President and the Asiwaju have a very strong commitment to the All Progressives Congress, APC towards bringing CHANGE and this is a commitment they have made to the Nigerian people.

It stated that the reports of a rift between the two leaders of our party are false; the handiwork of some media mischief makers.

Statement said, " is quite unfortunate that certain sections of the media feed on birthing controversies, providing a nexus for naysayers who work behind the scenes planting such stories which are absolutely false.

"This administration is aware of pessimists and cynics who willfully spread misinformation to create doubts in the minds of the people about the relationship between its leaders and whether the party will remain intact or not. There is no doubt that the President and the party are focused on development, peace and security, restructuring of the economy and war against corruption in the country and will not be diverted to anything else. This desperate attempt to fool the people will not succeed.

" Asiwaju Bola Tinubu remains one of the most respected political leaders in the country who has stuck to his principles in the face of all adversities. He was instrumental to the formation, growth and development of the APC into a formidable political party and the political alliance is waxing even stronger.

It further established that Asiwaju is not a frequent face in the Aso Rock Villa, because he is not a cabinet member of this government, adding that the fact that he is not every day around the Villa does not make him less of a friend to the President and this administration.
