A National Leader of the All Progressives Congress, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu has warned the military personnel against throwing the nation into turmoil in their bid to seize power.

Recall that The Chief of Army Staff, Lt. Gen. Tukur Buratai, last week warned some Nigerians, who he did not name, to stop “approaching officers and soldiers for political reasons”, a development which people believe could be a plot to overthrow the current political dispensation in the country.

Speaking in Lagos on Monday, Tinubu warned the military to forget any attempt to lure it to stage a coup, adding that such attempt would be resisted.

Tinubu, a former governor of Lagos State, said this at a Special Parliamentary Session organised by the Lagos State House of Assembly to mark the Lagos at 50 celebrations.

The event was also to mark the second anniversary of the 8th Assembly.

He said, “I will like to sound a note of caution to us – the democracy that we are now trying to perfect is not guaranteed to us. We must sweat hard and think wisely if we are to keep it.

“Just a few days ago, we had a warning that some people were trying to entice the military out of the barracks. I say don’t try it. I want to add my voice to that warning. Those who think they can break the democracy so many of us laboured and for which too many people sacrificed their lives, they are mistaken.

“Nigeria has come too far for such a thing to happen. Those people behind such idea will find no fertile ground to plant their seed in Lagos. We will not buy their bad product; whatever they want to sell is a bad product and we are going to reject it” he said
