A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress and former Senator, Adamu Garba, has claimed the endorsement by former President, Olusegun Obasanjo, is because he is desperately envious of the presidential candidate of the APC, Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
Garba’s made this statement in tweet via his verified Twitter handle on Sunday while reacting to Obasanjo’s endorsement of the presidential candidate of the Labor Party, Peter Obi, for the February 25 polls.
On the first day of the new year, Obasanjo, had in a lengthy New Year message to Nigerians, endorsed Obi amongst other presidential candidates for the 2023 election, saying he had an edge over other candidates.
The endorsement which had since received varying reactions, from other political parties, was now also criticized by the APC chieftain.
He wrote, “Envy is an immense disease. I respect & continue to respect General Olusegun Obasanjo. However, I advise him to outgrow his envy of Tinubu at this stage of his life.
“Obasanjo is desperately envious of the rise and shine of Bola Ahmed Tinubu; his lost (sic) in this one is sure to come.”
