Why My Relationship With Tinubu Fell Apart – Obanikoro

Must read

Former Minister of State for Defence, Musiliu Obanikoro, has revealed that he fell out with the National Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu, because he could not balance personal relationships with political disagreements.

He has made peace with Tinubu, following the intervention of the Oba of Lagos, Rilwan Akiolu and other prominent figures.

In an interview with the Punch, Obanikoro says the fallout will “serve as a good lesson to the younger generation.”

“I was happy that the reconciliation was done successfully. As I have said earlier, a very good friend of mine was also involved in the process. What has happened to me as regards my relationship with Asiwaju Tinubu should serve as a good lesson to the younger generation.

“Whenever you play your politics, always have it at the back of your mind that when you have disagreements, politically with someone, leave personal relationship out of it. Don’t allow your disagreement to affect the personal relationship you have with that person.

“I was never comfortable all along that I lost personal relationship with Asiwaju Tinubu. We can always mend fences after political disagreements easily but it is the personal relationship that is crucial,” he said.
