A spokesperson for the All Progressives Congress Presidential Campaign Council (APC PCC), Femi Fani-Kayode, has faulted the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) for its suit challenging the candidacy of APC’s Bola Tinubu in the February 25th presidential elections.
The spokesperson for the PDP campaign council, Kola Ologbodiyan, told journalists on Monday that the party had approached the courts seeking the Tinubu’s disqualification over allegations bordering on conviction for trafficking narcotics in the United States.
But Fani-Kayode, who made a live appearance on Channels Television’s Politics Today later in the day, described the claims as baseless.
According to the former aviation minister, the case is being initiated by the PDP as a smokescreen to deflect from the APC’s own case against the PDP presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, for alleged corruption
