President Muhammadu Buhari has been called to summon the presidential candidate of his party, the All Progressives Congress, Asiwaju Ahmed Tinubu, to order by the director of strategic communications for the Atiku-Okowa presidential campaign council, Chief Dele Momodu.
Momodu made the announcement in a statement issued on Sunday in Abuja.
He claimed that Tinubu’s increasing determination to use his media outlets to declare himself the winner of the ongoing election made the call imperative.
Momodu stated, “Our attention has just been called to the dangerously risky publication giving Chief Bola Tinubu, the APC’s presidential candidate, an improbable victory unilaterally.
“Tinubu owns the aforementioned newspaper.
Only yesterday, as all of us witnessed, thugs from the APC Chieftains and his cronies took control of the streets of Lagos, setting ballot boxes and other election-related paperwork ablaze and generally misbehaving to deny the willful voters their right to vote.
“Despite all of these despicable tactics to steal the election, the APC suffered their worst catastrophic defeat in the majority of the voting locations in Lagos.
The similar thing occurred in Kano. We woke up this morning to read about the pitiful and criminal lies concocted by the Tinubu media goons since the country was unable to ever be sobered by the crushing humiliation in its traditional lands.
The opposition parties in Lagos, Ogun, Ondo, Oyo, Osun, and Ekiti crushed Tinubu, the lone mainstream candidate, in his home region of the South West.
The majority of the Northern Governors he also anticipated would aid in his efforts to win over voters in the Northern areas utterly failed to do so.
He fell short in the South South and South East. Atiku Abubakar, the PDP’s presidential contender, is the only one with a significant nationwide following.
Yet as a respectable politician and responsible citizen, he won’t rush to the media to announce his well-earned win and glory after an arduous road.
A local kid who spoke with our reporter stated that “shortly after the fire started, thieves started to stream into the market, stealing shops.
“I can tell you that properties worth hundreds of millions of naira have already been looted.”
In addition to promising to see President Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.) right away for additional relief, Governor Babagana Umara Zulum announced a N1 billion relief for the victims as he walked around the burning market on Sunday morning. He also urged humanitarian organizations to assist the victims.
The Monday Market in Maiduguri was destroyed by fire three times in the past 20 years.
