Tinubu slams PDP, says Buhari not attacked in Kano
Bola Tinubu, the presidential candidate for the All Progressives Congress (APC), has refuted claims made by rival political groups that miscreants attacked President Muhammadu Buhari on Monday while he was visiting Kano.
Contrary to what the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has been speculating, Tinubu claimed that Buhari was welcomed with open arms in Kano.
Speaking via Bayo Onanuga, his director of media and publicity, Tinubu called the reported attack on Buhari “false news” coming from the PDP.
He said that Debo Ologunagba, the PDP’s national publicity secretary, was the only one capable of attacking Buhari.
Ologunagba had linked the attack on Buhari to Tinubu.
He said the attack on Buhari was treasonable and a sacrilegious assault on national sovereignty.
However, Tinubu said the attack was imagination in the “evil mind” of PDP’s spokesperson.

A statement by Onanuga reads partly: “We are not surprised to read of the imaginary attack on the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria being peddled by the PDP since the party has nothing tangible to tell Nigerians from its crumbling presidential campaign.
“This so-called attack on Buhari must have happened only in the fertile imagination of the PDP National Publicity Secretary.
“Buhari was warmly received in Kano State by the good people and government of the state where he commissioned eight hugely impactful projects.”
