Dino Melaye, a spokesperson of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) campaign council, has mocked Bola Tinubu, standard bearer of the All Progressives Congress (APC), for assigning questions he was asked to members of his team.

Tinubu spoke at the Chatham House in the UK on Monday.

After delivering a lengthy speech, the former governor was asked some questions by the audience which he assigned to members of his team.

Femi Gbajabiamila, speaker of the house of representatives; Betta Edu, APC national women leader; and Dele Alake, a director in the campaign council, were among some of those who responded to questions asked Tinubu.

“All these questions that you are sharing, Tinubu, there is God o! The questions you are supposed to be answering, you are sharing, why are you sharing these questions? You are assigning questions,” Melaye said in a video.

“You are now a question distributor. Question organiser.

“He left the Arise debate where his co-presidential candidates were in Nigeria and went to Chatham House as if he was contesting for the prime minister of London.”

Alake has since said those who criticised Tinubu for delegating the questions asked him are ignorant about the dynamics of leadership.

“Those who are saying Tinubu delegated people to respond to questions are ignorant of the nuance and dynamics of leadership,” he said.
