During the commissioning of the 157 kilometers Lagos-Ibadan standard gauge railway for commercial operations at the Mobolaji Johnson Station in Ebute Metta and the Integrated National Security and Waterways Protection Infrastructure in Nigeria (also called the Deep Blue Project) at the ENL Terminal, Apapa Port, the National Leader of the All Progressive Congress and the Jagaban of Lagos, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu was notably absent at the event.
Sahara Reporters gathered that before the event, the Presidency did not send an official invitation to Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, which sent a signal of a proposed misunderstanding between the two Party Leaders.
During an interview with Arise TV hours before the President went for the commissioning, President Muhammadu Buhari made a statement that indirectly shades Bola Tinubu. According to Mr. President, he said: “You cannot seat in Lagos and decide the zoning of APC.”
Although, the spokesman to the President, Garba Shehu cleared that the statement was not directed to Bola Tinubu but the fact remains that something is going on between Tinubu and Buhari.
Since Tinubu was not officially invited to the event, he had to avoid public humiliation by jetting out to an undisclosed destination.
