2015Presidential Election: I’ve not picked Tinubu as running mate– Buhari:
Former presidential
candidate and national
leader of the All Progressives Congress, APC,
retired General Muhammadu Buhari has
denied media reports that he has picked
former Lagos state Governor, Asiwaju Bola
Ahmed Tinubu, as running mate for the 2015
presidential race.
Recently, the media was awash with the news
that the opposItion party has decided to
settle for a Muslim/Muslim ticket ahead of the
2015 elections.
However, while reacting through his media
aide, Malam Ya’u Darazau, the party leader
said APC had no plan of picking Tinubu as a
running mate to General Buhari in the 2015
presidential election.
According to him, the former leader has not
made up his mind on the 2015 contest.
He said: “Those who will be presidential and
vice-presidenti al flag bearers will be named
during the party’s convention. It is untrue that
the General will have Tinubu as his running
mate in the 2015 elections and the matter
hasn’t even been discussed.
The General and, indeed, other party leaders
are trying to unite the party now and ensure
the success of the congresses. We don’t know
where and how the rumour emerged
because convention has to be conducted
before presidential candidate and his running
mate is chosen and this has not yet been
done,” he said.
