APC National leader, Bola Tinubu yesterday ruled out the possibility of a cabal in the Buhari-led administration. Speaking to state house correspondents after a closed-door meeting with President Buhari, Bola Tinubu said a cabal in the presidency is just a myth and that it doesn’t exist in the APC-led administration. He also described as fake news the reports that he has lost confidence in the leadership of President Buhari.
‘Fake news. I have confidence in this President. There is no doubt about that. We worked hard to bring about the government. There are certain things that are unpredictable and those are things that can lend itself to gossips, insinuations and all of that. But once you create leadership and is functioning, you don’t have to babysit that leadership unless there is a loss of confidence and I don’t have that. You know me. I’m not known to shy away from talking my mind and rebelling if it is necessary and taking charge of things that I believe are necessary. What is the myth in this leadership thing? What is cabal? Is a myth. We are the party of the people for the people and by the people and this is a democratic environment. Each of us have our roles to play and that is why we are playing it. I don’t believe in the myth, I believe in confidence building, the trust that we have in the president. In the journey of democracy, you are going to have twists and turns, you are going to have conflicts. Conflicts resolution mechanisms is inbuilt on how you handle your party and the governance and the party are joined by the hips.” he said
