2023: Governors In APC, PDP Backing Osinbajo’s Presidential Ambition – Ajulo

The former National Secretary of the Labour Party, Kayode Ajulo, on Wednesday claimed that most governors on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party and the ruling All Progressives Congress are in support of the alleged presidential ambition of the Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo.

Ajulo while speaking during an interview on Channels TV on Wednesday claimed that the Vice President has performed well in the last seven years.

The politician while rooting for Osinbajo, called on the APC to consider the vice president to succeed President Muhammadu Buhari at the end of his tenure in 2023.

He added that if the ruling party has the intention of retaining the presidential sit, the only person seen as the best marketable candidate is Osinbajo.

Ajulo said, “We need to distinguish the office of the Vice President and the personality of Professor Yemi Osinbajo. As it is, he’s running for this election is non-negotiable.

“I can say that authoritatively and I think those in the presidency are listening. He has that fundamental right of the first refusal to that ticket, particularly being the vice president of the country.

“If he can be Vice President for so long, he should be the next President. I want to believe that the leadership of the party should believe that that is the position.

“Most of the governors in APC and PDP are even supporting the aspiration of the Vice President, this is so clear.”
