In the wake of claims by the National Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Ahmed Tinubu that President Goodluck Jonathan had offered him a role as Vice President of a proposed Interim National Government if he dumps the APC presidential flagbearer, General Muhammadu Buhari, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has come out to debunk the claims, reiterating its stance that an Interim National Government was not in tandem with the Nigerian constitution.
Speaking via a statement issued in Abuja on Thursday, March 12, 2015, the Director, Media and Publicity of PDP Presidential Campaign Organisation, Femi Fani- Kayode said the allegations be Tinubu were baseless false and delusional.
Fani-Kayode further added that Tinubu’s claims were a result of his over-bloated opinion of himself, adding that the former Lagos State Governor made the assertions because his party, the APC is sure to lose the elections.
Fani-Kayode said: “These allegations are baseless and false. These people have become prisoners of their own delusions and they have become victims of their horrific and terrifying hallucinations.
“We are not in the least bit interested in the formation of an interim government and we are even less interested in participating in any contraption in which Bola Tinubu would play any role.
“Those that killed Funso Williams know who they are and it is very clear that his spirit is now tormenting his murderers. Let them be fully aware of this: whoever it was that killed Funso William will suffer the judgment of God both in this life and in the life hereafter. God would see to that.
“It is not true that anyone is trying to frame Tinubu for murder and it is not true that anyone from our government approached him to be the Vice President of anything. It is clear that he has an overinflated opinion of himself and he is suffering from the most extreme form and manifestation of paranoia.
“The man is hiding from his own shadow and the fear of his party losing at the polls later this month is giving him sleepless nights. Whether he, Buhari and their APC like it or not, they will be devastated at the polls and they would suffer a crushing and irreparable defeat.
“The everlasting confusion that would ensue in their camp after suffering this defeat will never be forgotten. The truth is this: the dementia in which Tinubu is suffering from has come as a consequence of his numerous sins. He should settle all these issues with God and leave us alone.”
