Osinbajo’s Presidential Declaration : Tinubu In Hurried Parley With APC Governors

By Ayodele Oni

An All Progressives Congress (APC) chieftsin and Presidential aspirant, Bola Tinubu, is today meeting Governors elected on the platform of the party to formally brief them on his bid to seek the ticket of the party as the Presidential candidate.

Tinubu’s hurriedly arranged meeting is coming just few hours after Vice President Yemi Osinbajo formally declared his own bid for the race in a recorded video that is currently trending on social media platforms.

The Vice President had earlier on Sunday met with the APC  Governors for a pre-declaration briefing at his Aguda House residence within the Aso Rock Presidential precinct.

The APC Governors were led by Governor Abubakar Atiku Bagudu of Kebbi State to the meeting.

The meeting with the APC Tinubu will afford him the opportunity to officially inform them about his Presidential ambition and seek for their cooperation.

Both Tinubu and Osinbajo are aspirants that have joined the Presidential race from the South West on the ticket of the APC.

It is still being rumoured that Governor Kayode Fayemi of Ekiti state too is nursing Presidential ambition but is still dilly-dallying.

His tenure as Governor will terminate on October 17 on completion of his second term in office.
