Bola Tinubu, national leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), says his relationship with Abiola Ajimobi, governor of Oyo state, is solid.
Tinubu was reacting to a report that he was making moves to ban Ajimobi from leading APC campaigns in Oyo.
Tunde Rahman, Tinubu’s media adviser, denied the report saying the national leader was only lending his support to the governor efforts in the state.
He noted that Tinubu’s intervention in state’s chapter of APC is to facilitate “genuine reconciliation and not to supplant the governor”.
“This report goes beyond a lie. It is a vindictive attempt to sow discord because the writer is angered by the APC’s success in the presidential election,” he said in a statement.
“By its unsubstantiated report, the medium seeks to set brother against brother. Asiwaju and Governor Ajimobi have been political brothers and allies for a long time.
“Moreover, Governor Ajimobi has been an excellent governor and a faithful member of the APC. He has brought progress to the state and in serving two consecutive terms, Ajimobi made history in Oyo.
“He is instrumental to anything the APC can achieve in Oyo.”
