National leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Mr. Bola Tinubu has responded to the launch of the ‘Coalition for Nigeria’ which is being championed by former President, Olusegun Obasanjo.
Tinubu said that it was too early to respond to movement as every Nigerian is entitled to freedom of speech and association.
The former Lagos governor disclosed this in a brief interview with journalists at the Imo State Government House on Thursday.
Tinubu said, “The appropriate time is not now for response on the Coalition Movement but don’t forget that we are in a democracy, we are in a country that is a signatory to the Charter of the United Nation which guarantees free movement, free association and free speech.”
On the reason for his visit to Imo, Tinubu added that the governor is a very good friend and the government that is here is our government, the APC government.
“We are here to pay final respect to the gentleman and Nationalist, Dr. Alex Ekwueme.”
