The National Leader of the All Progressives Congress, Senator Bola Tinubu, has said ex-President Olusegun Obasanjo was playing politics with the open letter he wrote to President Muhammadu Buhari recently.
Tinubu spoke in an interview with journalists when he visited Governor Rochas Okorocha in company with the pioneer National Chairman of APC, Chief Bisi Akande, at the Government House Owerri, on Friday.

He also said the APC would respond at the appropriate time to the emergence of the Coalition for Nigeria being promoted by Obasanjo.
Tinubu said Obasanjo ought to have exploited a better way of communicating his observations about the Buhari administration other than his open letter if he was not politically motivated.
He said: ” I think Obasanjo was playing politics with his public letter. That’s all I see.
“He could have used other means; he met him (Buhari) in the AU (Africa Union) too.
“He has a way of discussing privately, but the letter is being responded to by the government.
“Obasanjo wrote it about the government. It is a very good awareness on his part and they are both (Obasanjo and Buhari) from the same background.
“I believe that is the doctrine of military officers (retired) because he has unrestricted access to the President, either through the Council of State or by any other means that he needs to see the current president privately and he was his junior in the army.”
The APC leader then said jokingly that the letter was not written to him.
