APC to sue Fani-Kayode over Tinubu/Osinbajo oath-taking claim

 

The All Progressives Congress on Monday threatened to slam a lawsuit on Chief Femi Fani-Kayode, spokesman for the re-election of President Goodluck Jonathan, and the Peoples Democratic Party Presidential Campaign Organisation following their claim of an oath-taking pact between Prof. Yemi Osinbajo and Asiwaju Bola Tinubu.

The APC said it would commence legal proceedings unless the PDP presidential campaign body and its spokesperson produced evidence to support their claim.

Fani-Kayode had reportedly claimed that Osinbajo, the APC vice-presidential candidate, and Tinubu had sworn to an oath that the former would resign for the latter to take over as vice president if the APC candidate, Maj. Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd.) wins the presidential election.

The threat to sue was contained in a statement by the Director, Media and Publicity of the APC Presidential Campaign Organisation, Malam Garba Shehu.

The APC campaign warned the PDP and Fani-Kayode to either show evidence of the oath-taking or retract the libellous claim within 72 hours or be ready to be charged to a court of law.
