The presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress in the 2023 general elections, Bola Tinubu, has described Governor Yahaya Bello of Kogi State as his son.

The former governor of Lagos State made this claim moments after his closed-door meeting with the Kogi State Governor in Abuja on Thursday.

Tinubu commended Bello for mobilising the consciousness of youths during his presidential campaign which he later lost during the party’s presidential primary.

The APC presidential candidate was accompanied by Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu (Lagos), Bello Matawalle (Zamfara), Abdullahi Ganduje (Kano) and former APC Chairman, Adams Oshiomhole.

Tinubu while speaking after the meeting said, “The man of the convention, the man of democracy for that day, was Muhammadu Buhari.

“If you want to run, run; you want to crawl, crawl; you want to dance, dance.

“Yahaya Bello is my son; you mobilised the consciousness of the youth in the county. You remind us of what the nation wants to be.”
