PDP Is Trying So Hard To Destroy My Relationship With Buhari- TInubu

One of APC’s national leaders, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu has
said the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, are trying so hard to destroy his
relationship with the president. Tinubu who labelled those trying hard as
failed PDP politicians and some going through corruption trials says they are
paying blogs and some other websites to rubbish his name and publisheing
interviews he never granted in his name. He said the smear campaign was tagged,
‘Destroy the reputation of Tinubu and his relationship with Buhari’. This was
made known in a statement by his media aide, Mr. Sunday Dare. Continue…

“The individuals behind the plot are mostly scared PDP
elements made frightened by the Buhari anti-corruption campaign. They direct
this falsehood at Tinubu in the futile mission of trying to drive a wedge
between the President and Tinubu to disrupt the progress being made against
corruption and to destabilise the APC.

“But their PDP is already something by-gone, buried under
the mass of its corruption and wrongdoing. They fight for a cause that has no
cause. They are mercenaries of all the ills and defects that the people want
excised from our body politic. Thus, we must do the people a public service,”
he said.

Tinubu said he had a list of the blogs that were carrying
the false news and would soon expose their sponsors.

He said, “In the last six weeks, the Tinubu Media Office has
monitored the stream of false, distorted media accounts written against Bola
Ahmed Tinubu. We have learned that there is a concerted, wilful campaign
tagged, ‘Destroy the reputation of Tinubu and his relationship with Buhari.’

“As part of this ugly plot to cultivate the worst of lies
against the national leader of the APC, several blogs and online sites
recruited to launch this smear campaign have manufactured stories to advance
this sinister plan to taint the public mind with gross lies disguised as news
reports and interviews.

“Fallacious headlines such as ‘Reasons why I collected
N9m-Tinubu’ and ‘I will not return N9m-Tinubu”. “I am afraid PDP will stop
Buhari in 2019 – Tinubu,’ are being paraded. Try as hard as they can the
creators of these false tales and misleading headlines will fail miserably.

“Their stories cannot stand up to the slightest scrutiny.
They are patently false and we condemn in the strongest terms those involved in
this anti-Tinubu racket.”

Tinubu said such a smear campaign was nothing but libel and
would not be taken likely.
