President Bola Tinubu has expressed deep dissatisfaction with the desperation of some close associates of his, alleging that their eagerness for power is tarnishing the image of his administration, according to insiders in the Villa. The president, despite being rumored to be seeking a second term through dubious means, is reportedly committed to leaving a legacy of free and fair elections.
His close associates alerted him to the anomaly in the latest candidates' list released by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), accusing Senator Solomon Adeola and others of engaging in what they called a "defeatist strategy." The president is said to have called an emergency inner caucus meeting to protect his "democratic legacy" and prevent the electoral umpire from being portrayed as biased.
The first lady, Senator Oluremi Tinubu, is reportedly among those working to correct the situation. A top APC chieftain revealed that the president has expressed his strong dissatisfaction and that things will be corrected, stating that the party will deliver Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu in the forthcoming election, regardless of the opposition's actions.
