Onyebuchi Ezigbo in Abuja
The national leader of the All
Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, has said that he has
no intention to abandon the ruling party, which he laboured to build.
Tinubu, who was apparently reacting to
last weekend’s speculations that he and other APC leaders are working
with a faction of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to float a mega
party, stated that irrespective of mistakes that have been made, he
remains committed to the ideals that fuelled the formation of the APC.
In a statement posted on his personal
Twitter account on Monday, the former Lagos state governor said that the
national purpose of APC is bigger than the desire of any individual.
“I have devoted my political life to
achieving what has been achieved. My heart is too much for the people
and my mind too fixed on establishing a positive historic legacy… rather
than engage in destructive pettiness,” he wrote.
“This government, APC, is for the
betterment of the people and the national purpose is bigger and more
important than any individual’s desires. This is a party I laboured with
others to build. We would not abandon it for another. Millions of
Nigerians who voted are watching and praying.”
