2023: My Relationship With Buhari Cordial, Productive – Tinubu

National leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Ahmed Bola Tinubu, says he has a good and productive relationship with President Muhammadu Buhari.
It is rumoured that there is a crack in the relationship between Buhari and Tinubu and that the crack was tactically created to stifle Tinubu’s presidential ambition and pave way for another candidate to clinch the 2023 presidency.

Speaking to Daily Trust on Tuesday, Tinubu’s media aide, Tunde Rahman, denied reports that the two political gladiators have a strained relationship.

Rahman added that the insinuation of a cold war between them is perpetrated by people who profit from causing controversy where there is none.

He added that Tinubu is a loyal man and devoted patriot who stands committed to supporting President Buhari realise his policy objectives for the benefit of all Nigerians.

“The insinuation of a cold war between them is the stuff of idle gossip by people who profit from causing controversy where there is none.

“Asiwaju Tinubu is a loyal man and devoted patriot who stands committed, in any capacity he can, to supporting President Buhari realise his policy objectives for the benefit of all Nigerians.

“It is a testament to the quality of the relationship between them that President Buhari has so kindly agreed to chair the 12th annual colloquium marking Asiwaju‘s birthday on Monday.

“We expect the colloquium to be a productive and enlightening event where important issues are discussed and serious recommendations made. This is the type of interaction that will help Nigeria achieve its better self,” he said.
