A political support group for Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, Tinubu Vanguard, has said that the exit of Mr Abdulmumin Jubrin from the All Progressives Congress, APC, poses no threat to the group’s mandate.
Tinubu is the national leader of the APC and 2023 presidential aspirant.
The Director-General of Tinubu Vanguard, Dr Johnny Benjamin, in a statement on Sunday, said Jubrin’s decision to quit the APC was personal and should be respected.
Jubrin, who is the D-G of the Bola Ahmed Tinubu Support Groups Management Council, BATSGMC, had on Saturday, announced his decision to quit the APC.
He cited irreconcilable differences within the APC in his home state of Kano as reason for his decision.
According to Benjamin, Jubrin has the right to decide which political party was best for him to pursue his ambition.
“We call on the leadership and members of all support groups to remain calm.
“Tinubu is committed to the project of repositioning Nigeria and we are determined to ensure that he gets the opportunity to do so by delivering victory at the polls.
“We call on him to urgently address pending issues within the support groups to enable us work effectively towards achieving success in the party primaries and the general elections,” he said.
