I just read on page 7 of the punch of 5th October 2016 now where the embattled chairman of the APC claimed there is no feud between him and Asiwaju the Leader of the APC and claimed that he knew nothing about the anti Tinubu protest that was held by a youth group and even promised to get to the root of the matter.In his words he said ''God forbid(that i sponsor the protest)! Anybody who knows me knows its not my style. I am equally shocked and i am going to look into it and find out why and who is behind it''
The leader of the protest according to the punch is Lookman Salaudeen and from his assertions he said initially they taught it was the handiwork of the PDP but recently they have realized that the problem of the APC is from within. He further said that Tinubu cannot become an emperor and Lagos cannot be bigger than Nigeria and that if he cannot toe the the party line, he will be shown the way out.

i began laughing when i read this few lines, then i began to ask myself where this guys were when Asiwaju was building the party.They were busy singing praises of Goodluck ebele Jonathan and moving from offices of corrupt politicians like Saraki for relevance.
i quite agree with Lookman Salaudeen that the problem of APC is from within and let me throw more light to where the problem is actually from if he is confused. It is from his unrepentant Saraki and his folks that sponsored him to protest because of the token that is given to him.
As a youth leader, what has been the contribution of your own political mentors that are sponsoring you to protest against Asiwaju who has succeeded over the years as a consistence opposition leader and has even transformed Lagos to what it is today.
Let me remind you today if you dont know that Lagos state is even needed more in Nigeria than the whole of Niger Delta. It is a state where you have all tribes in Nigeria as a stakeholder unlike your state where your governor cannot start a project worth 100 million naira for 6 years on his own.
i also believe that the road that lead to your village is not motorable which has crippled the economic advancement of your people and have resulted into the Migration of 95 percent of your families to Lagos State Nigeria for greener pastures.The have become business men who have taken Lagos to be their home and hardly would they come home except during festive period.
Finally, i will advice that you retrace your steps and see reality before it gets late. The crude way of politics by your Saraki is over.The era of free money is gradually fading off. Go and be innovative enough. Tinubu and Oyegun have been together for ages even when your godfather Saraki was still in school. Infact Baba Saraki did not struggle with the likes of Tinubu during the military rule,they are the kind of politicians who are always supporting any reigning government, be it civilian or military.
The likes of Tinubu were sent to prison during the military era and some of them where even killed in the struggle. For you to now say Tinubu will be shown the way out of the Party is a statement that can only come out from an ignorant and corrupt youth that is been used by looters and regressive PDP members that joined the APC.
i am not writing this to impress or for any political gains, I am an employed graduate.In fact if been asked what is my profession i would proudly say i am an accountant but let me ask most of you what your profession is............'POLITICIAN' that is the response i am expected to hear....please is being a politician a profession. Political touts.
