Aso Rock Cabals Secretly Aiding Atiku Against Tinubu: Presidential Source

Published

on





A presidential source has alleged that President Muhammadu Buhari and members of the Aso Rock cabals are preparing a plan to keep control of the Northern Region in 2023.

The source claims that Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party is being secretly supported by Buhari and other cabal members in order to defeat Bola Ahmed Tinubu of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).

The cabals, including some members of Buhari’s extended family and friends, are the powers behind the APC presidency, according to Sahara Reporters.

The group, which is headed by Buhari’s nephew Mamman Daura, has the president’s ear, shapes policies, and chooses who gets important appointments.

The source continued, “Buhari approved the payment of billions of naira to settle debts that the government owed some companies connected to Atiku before the May 28 PDP presidential primary.”

“Do you know why Atiku doesn’t really care about (Rivers State Governor, Nyesom) Wike and others? It’s because President Buhari and the cabals are supporting him,” he said.

“Buhari gave him money that was owed to him to enable him to win the PDP primary. He asked the richest man in Katsina, Dahiru Mangal, to defect to the PDP and support Atiku—the reason Atiku is calling Wike’s bluff.

“With Atiku from the North, as a presidential candidate, they have asked top northerners to work for him irrespective of party affiliation.”

The Rivers Governor, Wike, had recently alleged that Abubakar was arrogant because someone in the Presidency was backing him.

The governor said the same forces at the Presidency promised someone the APC presidential ticket but failed to deliver it.

“Why are they being so arrogant? They are arrogant because they believe somebody in the presidency is backing them. But what they don’t understand is the same person in the presidency backed somebody as APC presidential aspirant, and the person failed,” he had said.

“I will tell Nigerians at the appropriate time who that person is in the presidency that is backing them and saying they are being arrogant.”

In 2021, SaharaReporters reported how some members of the Aso Rock cabal asked President Buhari to place Tinubu on the watch list.

They had accused Tinubu of sabotaging the war against insecurity in the country and instigating Nigerians, especially those from his South-West region, against the Buhari-led government.

The group urged the President to order security agencies to investigate the activities of the APC stalwart.

“They accused him (Tinubu) of instigating Nigerians against Buhari. He was also accused of sponsoring different groups to cause unrest across the country.

“I think they (cabals) think this is another method to tame Tinubu ahead of the 2023 elections after a lot of noise in the APC in which his allies lost out. “They are doing everything within their power to stop the president from supporting Tinubu’s ambition come 2023,” a presidential source had told SaharaReporters.

Tinubu, a former Lagos State governor, played a key role in the political merger of parties in 2013 which created the APC.
