APC May Sue Fani Kayode Over His Claim That Tinubu Would Replace Osinbajo After Winning The 2015 Election




Culled from punch nigeria:
The All Progressives Congress on Monday threatened legal action against Chief Femi Fani-Kayode, and the Peoples Democratic Party Presidential Campaign following their claim of an oath-taking pact between its vice presidential candidate, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, and APC National Leader, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu.
APC said it would commence legal proceedings unless the PDP Presidential Campaign Organisation and its Director of Media produce evidence on the purported oath-taking agreement between and the planned resignation of Osinbajo for Tinubu, in the event of a Maj. Gen Muhammadu Buhari’s victory in the March 28 presidential election.

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

The APC campaigners warned the PDP and Fani-Kayode to either show evidence of the oath-taking or retract the libelous claims within 72 hours or be ready to defend its claims in a court of law.

The statement partly read, “For the PDP, through Fani-Kayode, to state publicly that an erudite Professor of Law, a Senior Advocate of Nigeria and a reputable Pastor of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, swore to an oath to vacate his seat as the Vice President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria for the National Leader of the APC, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, should the party win the forthcoming election, is an attack on the hard-won integrity and the reputation of these great Nigerians and APC stalwarts.
