#InterimGovernment: President Jonathan replies Bola Tinubu

President Goodluck Jonathan has said he didn’t offer national leader of the All Progressives Congress, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, position of Vice President in a proposed Interim National Government. Speaking with State House correspondents in Abuja through his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Dr. Reuben Abati, described the claim as absurd and ridiculous.

He said, “If you de-construct the statement that purportedly emanated from the office of Asiwaju Tinubu, you will see again the absurd nature of it. The absolutely ridiculous nature of it in the sense that given the configuration of Nigeria, it is not likely, totally impossible to have an ING arrangement in which you will have a southerner as the President and then another southerner as Vice President.

“It is absurd. It is not something that is likely to work given the nature of our politics.But the Tinubu camp, putting out that statement, were so much in a hurry to engage in their usual game of deceiving the public of propagandaism of the current electoral process, that the emptiness, the hollowness, the shallowness of their proposition escaped them.”
