Tinubu doesn’t have moral rectitude to reform yahoo boys- Atiku’s aide
A media aide to the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar on Friday took the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Ahmed Bola Tinubu to the cleaner over his promise to reform the Yahoo boys if elected.
Phrank Shaibu, who is the Special Assistant, Public Communication to Atiku, noted that Tinubu lacks the moral right to reform the Yahoo boys.
According to him, Tinubu produced another comedy skit at the APC presidential rally in Benin City on Thursday when he promised to turn “the so-called Yahoo boys in Edo State to experts in manufacturing and creation of chips that din dasan dadauga.”
Shaibu said that had it been Tinubu was addressing a Christian congregation “we could have assumed that he was speaking in tongues but this was a campaign rally where he was supposed to have sold his candidacy to the millions of youths suffering from unemployment under the disease called the APC. Instead, he elected to refer to the young people of Edo state as Yahoo boys and fraudsters.”
The media aide said that Tinubu’s daily gaffes are evidence that he has no business going to Aso Rock Presidential Villa, but should rather be seeking urgent medical attention.
“While delivering his uninspiring speech, he took a swipe at Waziri Atiku Abubakar, insisting that Atiku acted dishonourably by selling vehicles while he was a customs officer,” he said.
He said that Tinubu’s frustration is quite understandable given the fact that in 1989 while Atiku, a Federal officer, was serving as the Deputy Director of Customs in charge of Enforcement and Drugs and was protecting the country’s borders from smugglers and drug dealers, Tinubu was in bed with two notorious drug kingpins.
Shaibu noted that till date Tinubu, the man Governor Wike and his friends allegedly signed up to support as President, has not been able to explain to any human being how he was able to save over $1.8 million from his monthly pay of $2, 400, while working for Mobil.
