 ALL Progressives Congress (APC) Vice Presidential Candidate, Professor Yemi Osibanjo (SAN), has pooh poohed the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governors’ attack to the APC Presidential Candidate, Major-General Muhammadu Buhari (retd) saying that Buhari would do two terms and would not spare corrupt APC members, if elected. Speaking in Kaduna, yesterday, Osinbajo, who denied signing a resignation letter, said Buhari would draw a line between his relationship with party members and governance, if elected.
He spoke against impressions in some quarters that most of the leaders of APC are corrupt. Osinbajo, who chaired a town hall meeting between the APC leaders and religious leaders in the North-West zone of the country on behalf of Buhari also spoke on Buhari’s alleged decision to a term, saying, he will “by the grace of God run two terms in office”. The response essentially followed questions from the members of audience who were a mix of Muslim and Christian clerics on whether Buhari had actually pledged to do one term should he win. He said: “On the various issue of corruption, what General Buhari has said categorically is that as far as he is concerned, the day he is sworn-in as president, he would have drawn a line. Anybody who runs foul of the law, anything that is beng investigated before will continue as it is. “If you are found to be corrupt, you will receive the consequence, no matter who you are. Whether you are his brother, sister, his friends there will be consequences. That is what he has said and I think that is in line with the position of the party. “There is no way he is going to sign any agreement, so let us be very clear. I don’t even need to ask him that. Buhari will never be part of any under hand deal. I know him well enough that he will never sign anything of such. The man is healthy and strong and by the grace of God, he will run two terms in office”, he said. Asked to clarify his widely rumoured agreement with the national elder of the APC, Mr. Ahmed Bola Tinubu to resign from office after six months, Osinbajo said the speculation is domiciled in the imaginations of its peddlers. “Do not take any of these things seriously at all. By God’s grace, we will win election and you will observe for yourself,” he said.
