APC Members Bola Tinubu, Under Security Watch

             I got this report from Sun..Security agencies have launched a surveillance ring around a lead­er of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu and others,

including some members of the National Assembly, over an alleged plot against President Mu­hammadu Buhari.

The plot, which presidency sources said is not unconnected to the decision of President Buhari to dump several nominees submitted by some party leaders and political godfa­thers for ministerial appointments, has led to a move to mend fences between the two ma­jor contending forces in the Senate.

Intelligence reports had revealed that some state governors, party leaders and political godfathers, whose nominees were dumped by the President for his preferred candidates, have begun to “unleash their goons in a well coordinated media campaigns and groups’ protests against Mr President’s choice of ministerial nominees”

Saturday Sun gathered that of particular in­terest to some intelligence agencies keeping a tab on the plot “is the decision of an APC leader in the South-West to jet out of the country the moment he realised that he could not push through his ministerial nominees, only to be coordinating attacks against the President from his base outside the country.”

A top official in one of the nation’s intelli­gence agencies leading investigations into the alleged plot told Saturday Sun on condition of anonymity, “because the investigation is still at the preliminary stage”, that “a partic­ular political godfather who has been spear­heading the campaign to remove the Senate President, Dr Bukola Saraki has suddenly turned round to be reaching out to Senators in his (Saraki’s) camp to mend fences so as to form a joint force to launch an attack against the President.”

“We are following all of these clues and leads including promises by the same person to help crush the criminal charges against a leading Senator. This brand of politics will in no way help the ruling party and the nation. One man must not have his way in all cases and in every arrangement”, the source added.
