BOLA Ahmed Tinubu, a former governor of Lagos State and national leader of All Progressives Congress, APC, has strongly warned against any coup attempt to usurp the current administration of President Buhari Muhammadu, saying Nigerians would resist such attempt by the military.

Tinubu made the remarks today, Monday, May 22, while addressing gathering at the Parliamentary Session at the Lagos State House of Assembly, Alausa, Ikeja, being organised as part of activities in commemoration of Lagos at 50 and second anniversary of the eighth assembly of the state Assembly.

The APC chieftain said: “I want to add my voice to that warning of coup attempt. They should not try it, those who want to break the democracy that many died for.

“You will have no fertile ground to plant the seed in Lagos. It is a bad product and I can assure you that we will reject it. Lagos will resist any form of action that plans to end the democracy we clamour for.”
