The 2023 Presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, has described his counterpart from the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Atiku Abubakar as a pathological liar over his recent remark on Muslim-Muslim ticket.
DAILY REPORT NG reports that the PDP candidate had alleged that Tinubu wanted to be his running mate when he (Atiku) was the Action Congress, AC, presidential candidate in 2007.
Reacting, the APC presidential candidate said Atiku asked him to be his running mate in 2007 but he refused.
In a statement by Tunde Rahman, his media aide, Tinubu said: “ Atiku may want to be president. However, all he has shown is that he is a pathological liar.
“Let me say openly that Atiku offered me the vice presidential ticket in 2007. Let me also say that my religion has not changed. When he offered the position to me, I was a Muslim and I believe he was aware of my religious faith at the time.

“Atiku’s calculations and deceit had nothing to do with religion or his sensitivity to it. His conduct has everything to do with what we discovered about his paucity of character and love of intrigue.”
