APC group Kicks over visit of Alaibe to Tinubu
...Calls out the former NDDC chiefs efforts against Tinubu, APC in the last presidential elections.
The Bayelsa APC Integrity Group, AIG, has described as deeply hypocritical Chief Ndutimi Alaibe’s visit to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu at the Presidential Villa in Abuja on the grounds Mr Alaibe was a top supporter and financier of the PDP and Atiku Abubakars’ run for presidency.
In a statement on Monday, Chairman of the APC Integrity Group Elder Philip Suowari stated that ‘In Bayelsa state Alaibe was a top antagonist of Tinubu’s emergence. he saw everything bad in Tinubu and APC. He openly supported the PDP and Atiku, which, indeed, we must concede is his right. But he went too far against Tinubu including notorious oppositions to the APC ICC.
‘It is puzzling to see him obbying this hard for appointment in a government he fought tirelessly, religiously, to truncate’
‘He mobilised massively against Tinubu and the APC and now that Tinubu has won he wants to turncoat all of a sudden’
‘ It is his right and franchise. Nothing wrong in that. what is wrong is for him to go against the principle he set for himself against President Tinubu during the campaigns’
The AIG further stated that if Mr Alaibe is willing to defect to the APC he can do so and queue behind those before him, those who gave their all in Tinubu’s historic journey to the Nigerian Presidency instead of slithering around holes and backdoors.
The APC Bayelsa Integrity Group hereby calls on the presidency, Bayelsans and Nigerians to discountenance Alaibe’s cynical and desperate efforts to gain attention in a government he swore never was to happen.
