The ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has revealed plans to sanction Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu over his outburst and utterances against President Muhammadu Buhari.
While stating that the outburst was unacceptable, the leadership of the APC noted that the apology later offered by Tinubu was not enough.
The party however, did not specify the kind of disciplinary measures that it would take against APC stalwart.
APC national chairman Abdullahi Adamu told journalists on Saturday at the party national secretariat, that the former Lagos State Governor insulted President Muhammadu Buhari describing the action as unbecoming and demeaning.
A few days ago, Tinubu boasted, while speaking to APC delegates in Ogun, that Buhari wouldn’t have been president without his help.
According to him, “If not me that led the war front, Buhari would not have emerged. He contested first, second and third times, but lost. He even said on television that he would not contest again.
“But I went to his home in Katsina, I told him you would contest and win, but ‘you would not joke with Yoruba matters.
“Since he has emerged, I have not been appointed minister. I didn’t get a contract.
“This time, it’s the Yoruba’s turn and in Yorubaland, it’s my tenure.”
He also claimed to be behind the emergence of Yemi Osinbajo as vice president and Dapo Abiodun as governor of Ogun State.
