JUST IN: Youths ‘Attack’ Tinubu
The Ohanaeze Youths Movement (OYM) has chastised the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, for what it described as his outburst against President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration.
The ruling party’s presidential candidate accused the Buhari administration of using the raging fuel scarcity and newly-introduced Naira notes and cash handling policies of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) to allegedly blunt his chances at the ballot box next month during a campaign rally in Abeokuta, Ogun State capital, on Wednesday.
In a statement signed by its secretary general, Nwada Amaka, the Ohanaeze Youth group said Tinubu should wait until he is elected before declaring war on Buhari’s economic and electoral reforms.

The group expressed concern about the APC presidential candidate’s unguarded remarks and what it called his entitlement mentality, adding that President Buhari has done enough to show his support during this campaign season.
The statement reads, “In the past few months, Buhari has indicated his intention to allow a level-playing field during the upcoming election. The President said he backed CBN’s decision to redesign naira notes in order to restore control over the money supply.
“However it seems Tinubu appeared not only to distance himself from the good policies of CBN but to insinuate a conspiracy against him by President Muhammadu Buhari. It’s not surprising because Tinubu and his supporters have a niche for influencing elections with money through various means, including vote buying. He should wait to be elected before declaring war on Buhari’s economic and electoral reforms.”
