The presidential candidate of All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu is a man running away from the law, according to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Presidential Campaign Council spokesperson, Dino Melaye.
In a press statement issued on Sunday and made available to Tribune Online, Senator Dino was reacting to comments made against Atiku by the presidential candidate of the All Progressive Congress (APC), Senator Ahmed Bola Tinubu alleging that Atiku ‘fought’ Obasanjo, while in office.
The statement partly read; “It’s not a surprise that Tinubu would castigate a man, who defended the rule of law; a man who is running from the law on many fronts cannot see merit in defending the rule of law.

“Tinubu fought his female Deputy Governor, Mrs. Kofo Akereke-Bucknor, until she was removed from office.
“The treatment he gave to Mr Femi Pedro was not any better. Why then did he focus on the jot in someone’s eyes while overlooking the log in his own.”
According to Melaye, Atiku proved that “loyalty of public officers is to the constitution and not to individuals”.
