\n
The founder and pioneer national chairman of the defunct Congress for Progressive Change (CPC), Senator Rufai Hanga, has said there was \u201cimplied agreement\u201d President Muhammadu Buhari would hand over power to the national leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and former governor of Lagos State, Asiwaju Ahmed Bola Tinubu in 2023.<\/div>\n
\n
\n
\n
\nHanga, who chaired one of the parties which collapsed to form the APC in 2014, in a chat with the media said\u00a0 the agreement was the reason why Tinubu remained in the APC after Buhari\u2019s first term.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cThis is an open secret. There was an implied agreement. Even in law, there is implied and expressed act. If something is expressed, there are no two ways about it. There was an implied agreement that he would take over. That is why he didn\u2019t back out after the first tenure. If Tinubu knew that he would not benefit, he would have backed out during Buhari\u2019s first tenure. But he knows there was an agreement,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Hanga however expressed doubt that the APC will give its ticket to Tinubu, predicting a fight ahead, with power blocs among governors and some forces in the Presidency.<\/p>\n

The former lawmaker said though the two major parties had their crises, Nigerians may in the end prefer the People\u2019s Democratic Party (PDP) because of what he described as a woeful performance of the APC government under Buhari.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
