Salihu Lukman, a former member of the All Progressives Congress (APC) National Working Committee, has promised to continue his battle against President Bola Tinubu and the APC-led administration.

According to Naijaonpoint, Lukman, who backed Tinubu and campaigned for his presidency, remarked in an interview on Arise TV’s morning show on Tuesday that the president has arrogantly reneged on his campaign promises to Nigerians.

Lukman claimed that he supported Tinubu’s presidential campaign because he believed the former governor of Lagos State was a true democracy and progressive leader, but his assessment was incorrect.

The former APC leader challenged President Tinubu to prove his assertion incorrect, after which he promised to apologise to him.

He remarked, “I had the conviction that President Asiwaju is truly a progressive politician and a Democrat, which was why I invested my support in him, but once I saw him departing from those beliefs I had, I didn’t wait any longer. And I was not pushed by anybody… I am humble enough to admit that my judgement was wrong.

“It is a challenge for President Asiwaju to prove many of us wrong, and if he did so, I would be the first to come out and apologise again, I was wrong, but to the extent that he continues arrogantly in the direction he’s going, without remorse that he has departed from all the promises he made to Nigerians, I have no apology to him, and I will continue to stand and campaign against both the APC and his administration. I have no apology for him, and I will continue to stand and campaign against him and the APC administration.”

Lukman, who recently joined the demand for a coalition to unseat Tinubu in 2027, recommended opposition leaders to engage in competitive politics in order to seize power from the APC government.
