National
leader of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu says the
nation will never allow the military to rule again, vowing that coup plotters
will be
resisted.
Tinubu spoke
on Monday at the Special Parliamentary Session to mark Lagos at 50 celebration
at the State House of Assembly, Ikeja, Lagos.
He said
Nigeria had gone too far to allow a thing like military coup to happen again,
as such move would be resisted at all cost.
Tinubu said
the news was everywhere that some people were trying to entice the military out
of the barrack to stage a coup, stressing that such move would be resisted.
He said
those who thought they could scuttle the democracy for which many died and
sacrificed their lives for were surely mistaken as Nigeria had gone too far for
such a thing to happen.
The APC
chieftain said Lagos would never provide a fertile ground for coup plotters to
hatch their evil ideas, saying that the state would resist such move.
“Some people
have been trying to entice the military out of the barrack. I want to lend my
voice to this, those who think they can break democracy for which many died,
sacrificed their lives are surely mistaken.
“Nigeria has
come too far for that thing to happen, those people will find no fertile ground
to plant their seed in Lagos, we will not buy their product, it is a bad
product, we will reject it, Lagos will resist it, move away from it,” he said.
