The leader of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu has been assured by the party’s National Chairman Chief John Odigie-Oyegun that he will never oppose him at any time while acknowledging receipt of the letter written to him by the former governor of Lagos State.
Odigie-Oyegun’s acknowledgment came after he held a closed door meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari, at the Presidential Villa Abuja, on Friday.
Although details of the party chairman’s meeting with the President were sketchy, it was gathered that the President prevailed on the National Chairman to cooperate with the former Lagos State governor.
This came 48 hours after Tinubu wrote the APC National Chairman accusing him of undermining his peace and confidence building efforts.
In the letter acknowledging receipt of Tinubu’s letter; Odigie-Oyegun merely expressed gratitude to Tinubu for wishing him well.
Odigie-Oyegun asked Tinubu to rest assured of his support towards ensuring the success of the daunting task given to him by the President.
Oyegun’s letter read in part : “I thank you for your letter dated February 21, 2018 for your prayers and good wishes for my health.
“I wish you the same and pray that our good God keeps you strong and grants you His peace. Let me once again formally congratulate you on the peace making assignment Mr. President has entrusted you with.
“It is most challenging but I believe you will ultimately justify the confidence reposed in you by Mr. President. In this you have my fullest support. Be assured, dear Asiwaju, of my highest regards now and always.”
