Meanwhile, the National Leader of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Tinubu has been warned that a previous statement credited to him in which he said he doesn’t believe in one Nigeria may scuttle his chances of becoming president in 2023.

To this end, Tinubu has been told to apologize to Nigerians now that he is gunning to become the president of a united Nigeria.

Naija News reports that the challenge was made by a chieftain of the APC, Saleh Mandung Zazzaga while speaking with newsmen in Jos, the Plateau State capital on behalf of some APC stakeholders in the state and some northern states.

Tinubu had in an interview with Thisday publication of April 13, 1997, said he doesn’t believe in one Nigeria.

“I don’t believe in one Nigeria,” he was quoted to have said.

Speaking to journalists on the matter, Zazzaga said the failure of Tinubu to apologize will affect his chances and that of the APC as well in the 2023 elections and therefore urged him to do the honourable thing by apologizing.
