“The last minute cancellation of an approval granted @RMKwankwaso is unfortunate.

“On October 15, 2014, under the @officialPDPNig led administration, then presidential aspirant; @MBuhari, declared for President at Eagle Square with no hindrance whatsoever. This was a work day.” Atiku Tweeted.

Also on Kwankwaso’s side was Senate President Bukola Saraki who also condemned the move by the Federal government

He said in the statement: “The refusal to allow Senator Kwankwaso to utilize the Eagle Square for his Presidential declaration, despite an earlier approval, sends a wrong message about our democracy, particularly the tolerance level in our politics.

“That square belongs to all Nigerians because it was built with public funds. We hope this is not what we will be seeing as we approach the 2019 General Elections,”

According to Premium Times, the management of the Square had agreed to let Kwankwaso use the venue and payment had been effected only for them to renege on the agreement. The Presidential aspirant was forced to move his announcement to  Chida hotel in Abuja.
