Tinubu was recently inaugurated as the co-chairman with President Muhammadu Buhari for the All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential Campaign Council.
In a statement of acceptance and appreciation for his new position, Tinubu had described Atiku as not being as honest as Buhari.
But responding in a statement, PPCO Director of Media and Publicity, Kola Ologbondiyan, chided Tinubu, saying: “At Tinubu’s stature, he ought to be found in the class of respected senior citizens who are decorous, speak statesmanly and not resorting to the gutters whenever he speaks in public.
“In politics, family ties and bonds as well as relationships are greater and stronger than political interests and it is the expectation of our campaign organization that Tinubu should understand this.
“Our candidate, Atiku Abubakar, is a focused Nigerian who has contributed immensely to the economic and political development of our nation.
“He has also displayed huge stability in character through the bridges of human and economic relationships he has built across our nation.
“At this critical time, when majority of Nigerians expect true democrats, which Tinubu has always claimed allegiance, to come together and rescue our nation from the absurdity of a governance that the APC and the Presidency represent, it is unfortunate that Asiwaju chose to be tied to the aprons of anti-democratic interests,” the statement read.
