It is no longer news that there is a powerful cabal operating in Aso Rock which is opposed to APC winning at the forthcoming General Elections. And their agenda is simple: to work with some top government functionaries to sabotage the elctions, by making sure that unpopular policies are put in place to make sure that the image of the party is battered to an extent where the genarality of the people will be too angry to vote for the APC. Some have described these people as Fifth Columnists who behave as if they mean well but who are happy at the negative turn of events across the country. Their sole interest is to ensure that the APC and its Presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu lose at the forthcoming elections.
Kaduna State governor, Mallam El-Rufai mentioned this in his Channels & TVC interview. Many other top APC chieftains have come out to restate this, despite the fact that Alhaji Lai Mohammed, the Information Minister has come out to deny the existence of a cabal.
Some political analysts have explained that some members of this cabal seem to prefer Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, the PDP presidential candidate. It was Gov. Wike of Rivers State who first mentioned it last year when he said there is a cabal in the Presidency who have been deceiving Atiku that they will give the Presidency to him. According to Wike, this is the same Cabal which failed to win at the APC primaries, which produced Asiwaju Bola Tinubu. “Now that the Cabal’s plot has been exposed to all by the APC Northern Governors, see what is left of Atiku’s delusional ambition.
Who are the members of this Cabal? None of them will own up as being part of the cabal because what they are doing is anti-people. So, they have remained faceless but have strong links with other members who control key areas of government.
What has made many believe that there is a cabal is because of the numerous bad policies of the APC which has led to numerous crisis from Insecurity to challenges of PVC collection, lack of cash and fuel scarcity all of which has brought pain and anguish to Nigerians. What many don’t understand is how a party that wants to come back to power pursue unpopular policies.
City People has gathered that what gives the cabal the power they wield is the fact that members of the cabal have the listening ears of the President. It has been gathered that many of them are the ones fuelling Insecurity, currency challenges, fuel scarcity & PVC problems. They have also made it difficult for INEC to operate peacefully. That was why Tinubu exploded is Abeokuta a few weeks back when he pointed accusing fingers at the powerful forces in Aso Rock who are fuelling the various crisis facing the country.
A few days back, Tinubu revealed that the Cabal is planning to foist on Nigerians Interim Government. Governor El-Rufai has explained that many members of the Cabal are not APC members. According to him, they are political appointees who have nothing at stake if things go wrong.
