Obasanjo Bears No Grudge Against Tukur

Past President Olusegun Obasanjo has no personal grudge against the former Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Alhaji Bamanga Tukur.
.
The Media Assistant to the former president, Mr Tunde Oladunjoye said that Obasanjo had no grudge against Tukur.
.
“I want you to note that Chief Olusegun Obasanjo has nothing personal against Alhaji Bamanga Tukur,” he said.
.
Oladunjoye who made a reference to Obasanjo’s recent letter to Tukur said that the former president did not call for Tukur’s resignation.
.
He said that the issues raised in the letter were purely based on personal principle.
.
If you look at Chief Olusegun Obasanjo’s last letter to the former national chairman, the issues he raised in that letter were much more than Tukur’s resignation,” he said.
.
Oladunjoye, however, said that the issues raised in Obasanjo’s letter were yet to be addressed.
.
Obasanjo had written a letter dated Jan. 7 to Tukur in which he announced his withdrawal from activities of the party at local, state, zonal and national levels.
.
Obasanjo hinged his reason on the fact that the party had been negating the principles of morality, decency and discipline in its decisions, particularly as it affected the South-West zone.
.
According to Obasanjo, I also believe that on no account should a known habitual criminal that is wanted abroad to face criminal charges leveled against him should be extolled as a political leader.
