According to a news that was published by the Vanguard Newspaper online this morning, it was reported that some senators that were elected on the platforms of the six opposition political parties, have concluded the arrangements to move against Alhaji Atiku Abubakar’s bid to deliver Senator Aminu Tambuwal as the next Senate Minority leader.
It was reported that the aggrieved Senators, have vowed to resist Aminu Tambuwal’s emergence in the way and manner they fought against the alleged imposition of Senator Godswill Akpabio as Senate President.
One of the PDP sources, who spoke to Vanguard’s correspondent as regarding Tambuwal’s ambition said that as a result of his antecedents, Senators in the Party were rejecting the calls by some PDP officials and their Governors, insisting that Tambuwal is no option for them.
He said, “You can trace the major political activities of Aminu Tambuwal in the past decade. He seems to have a record of treachery and betrayal of close friends and allies as he did to Goodluck Jonathan, Nyesom Wike, Bola Tinubu himself and several other people.”
The source said that in 2015, Tambuwal went against his Party, the PDP, and a sitting president (Jonathan) to rubbish the PDP’s Zoning arrangements just because, it did not favoure him and when he became the Speaker with the support of opposition elements (that is Tinubu, Buhari and other leaders), he used the platform of the Speakership to effectively rubbish the presidency of Goodluck Johnathan and the Peoples Democratic Party and he later decamped to the All Progressives Congress and negotiated to be governor.
The source said, “Muhammadu Buhari, Bola Tinubu, Wammako and others, rewarded him for his treachery against his party (PDP) but, his ambition could not be accommodated so he betrayed Wammako, Tinubu, Buhari, and aligned with Atiku Abubakar and he came back to Peoples Democratic Party with the All Progressives Congress’ mandate that was given to him, with the hope of running for presidency.”
He said, “Nyesom Wike, against all odds backed him and promised to deliver the presidential nomination to him but, Thank God that did not succeed.”
