Tinubu To Atiku: Stop dancing ‘skelewu’ causing gridlocks in Abuja

President-elect, Asiwaju Ahmed Bola Tinubu, has told the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar, to respect himself and stop following court jesters like Dino Melaye to dance ‘skelewu’ and causing traffic snarls within the nation’s capital, Abuja.

Tinubu made the statement whole reacting to Monday’s protest to the headquarters of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), by Atiku and some leaders of PDP.

‘Skelewu’ is a dance form established by ace young musician, David Adeleke (Davido), in his song with the same title.

Describing the action as low and a theatre of the absurd, Tinubu said it was strange that a former vice-president of the country could be so idle as to disturbing public peace.

The Director, Media and Publicity, at the All Progressives Congress Presidential Campaign Council (APC-PCC), Mr. Bayo Onanuga, in a statement, said when Atiku told the world last week that he would seek redress in court over the outcome of the February 25 presidential election, little did the PCC know that he did not plan to be guided by his own promise.

“Going by his political antecedents, it was rather not surprising that Atiku, days later, led a band of protesters, nay jesters, in Abuja, to the headquarters of Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC.

“What was on display today by Alhaji Atiku and his motley crowd was a new low from the perennial election loser.

“With Atiku staging a theatre of the absurd, we fail to see how a march to INEC by a scanty crowd will provide any victory window for him and his fragmented PDP,” he said.
