Senator Kofoworola Bucknor-Akerele has finally revealed why she resigned as Bola Tinubu's deputy when the All Progressives Congress presidential candidate was the Governor of Lagos State.
Speaking in a recent interview with the popular society magazine, Alaroye, the former deputy governor alleged that his former principal terrorized her with charms while they worked together.
According to her, she resigned from her appointment over irreconcilable differences with Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
Senator Bucknor-Akerele was Deputy to the APC Presidential candidate from May 1999 till November 2003.
Bucknor-Akerele also alleged that Tinubu has different behaviours and fought her with charm, stressing that her mother told her to quit her position.
She said: “He has different behaviours. In fact (he fought me) with charms and all.
“So later, Awishe Savage called me and advised me to resign.
“My mother also called me and reminded me that I am her only child, and she is aged. She asked me to resign.”
Speaking further, Bucknor-Akeredele said she fell out with Tinubu when she went against an attempt by the APC flagbearer to take over the Alliance for Democracy (AD).
Senator Kofoworola Bucknor-Akerele also disclosed that her former boss changed his name over the years to what he currently bears.
“His name is not Tinubu, he borrowed the name,” Bucknor, a member of the Board of Trustees (BoT) of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), told Alaroye TV in a recent interview in Yoruba.
Amid the constant claim that Tinubu changed his name, his associates have challenged critics to present evidence of the presidential hopeful’s birth-given name.
