The board is set, pieces are positioned as the next political chess game begins.
Come 2019, Senator Oluremi Tinubu, wife of the national leader of All Progressives Congress (APC) Asiwaju Bola Tinubu may not be able to retain her status as a serving senator of the Federal Republic.
Newsheadline247 gathered Mrs Oluremi Tinubu’s status as a distinguished Senator is under huge threat going by the ongoing political negotiations to reposition her husband whose political relevance has been widely suspected to be ‘unstable’ after the 2015 general elections.
A report by a popular Nigerian online platform, SocietyNow NG stated the continuing status of the wife of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu as a Senator is reportedly being threatened by ongoing political negotiation to keep her husband “safe”.
Newsheadline247 also understands aside the national reconciliation assignment handed over to Mr Tinubu by President Buhari, the political generalissimo has also begun personal reconciliation moves in his home state, Lagos.
His political structure is making efforts to close ranks, build bridges with ‘political enemies’ and ‘aggrieved allies’ to restore and strengthen his leadership position at the state, regional and national level.
Information made available indicates like a game of chess, one of the major sacrificial piece on board at the moment in the negotiation process is the Lagos Central Senatorial seat currently occupied by his wife.
“Except something changes the status quo, there are strong indications it would be one of the sacrifices to be made to protect a larger interest” a source claimed.
Mrs Tinubu who at present is on her second term at the upper chamber of the National Assembly as a Senator of the Federal Republic will become a huge sacrifice if eventually the political trading process made her ‘a sacrificed pawn to protect the king’
