“Tinubu, El-Rufai and Bakare played pivotal role in bringing the Goodluck Jonathan led government to its knees during the ‘Occupy Nigeria’ mass protest against the removal of fuel subsidy. They saw no sense in the removal of fuel subsidy by Jonathan administration. However, today, the removal of the said subsidy by the – Buhari led administration makes absolute sense to them and they have been drumming support for it. This shift in position is self-serving and hypocritical.
“Whereas MAD concedes that everyone has a right to shift his position if he comes to fresh facts and findings on a matter, the ignoble role Tinubu and El-Rufai played in the Occupy Nigeria saga makes it mandatory for them to first apologise and then explain why the same drug they rejected from one doctor, they have accepted and swallowed with pleasure.” Lemmy Ughegbe, Executive Director, MAD.
