The National leader of All Progressives Congress, APC, Senator Ahmed Bola Tinubu, on Tuesday, said Nigeria’s President Goodluck Jonathan was behind the abduction of the over 200 Chibok Secondary School girls in Borno State.
Tinubu, who spoke at the final Mega Rally for Osun State Governor, Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola at Osogbo, said since Jonathan had told the world that he knew where the girls were kept, he knew about their abduction.
He challenged the President to tell the world why they were yet to rescue the female students despite the huge support he had gotten from international communities.

He urged members of the party not to be intimidated by the large numbers of security operatives on the streets of Osun, saying they were only there to protect them.
He sounded a note of warning to the security operatives that anyone who failed to fulfill its constitutional responsibility would be exposed by the electorate.
While faulting the President on governance, Tinubu said, Jonathan could not send troops to Northern region where killings have taken over governance, but he had always enjoyed militarizing states controlled by APC during election period.

He said “on Saturday, our President said he had decided to send troops to Osun in order to prevent killing and rigging and he noted that during the last general elections, some corps members were killed because of poor policing, we want to tell him that we know his plan; they must not send a fake corper to Osun”.
