The media office of former Lagos State governor and national leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu has reacted to the comment by the Peples Democratic Party (PDP), that the presidential candidate of the party is been controlled by Tinubu.
The PDP according to its Publicity Secretary, Olisah Metuh had said a vote for Buhari is a vote for PDP and even tagged the APC as Asiwaju Personal Consortium.

But in what it described as its initial reaction, Tinubu’s media office said the APC presidential candidate, General Buhari is more than their insults.
The statement reads
General Muhammadu Buhari was selected at the APC National Convention because of his sterling qualities. He is a man of principle and his commitment to the nation is undisputed. His overriding concern is the well-being of Nigeria. A man of such principle and leadership presence can never be a puppet. Those who claim he is a puppet do grave insult to an outstanding patriot and millions of Nigerians who support him.
The PDP would do better if they spent their time trying to fix their rickety ship after such dismal primaries than to cast stones at the APC’s more democratic and genuine process. They speak in this manner because they are afraid the APC will confront them with a ticket they cannot beat by
fair means.
We will do our own internal consultations and arrive at a ticket we believe is best suited to govern Nigeria. If they are so interested in who we pick, they are free to quit their bankrupt party and join the party that offers the best hope for this nation and its future.
