I Can’t Speak On Osinbajo, Lawan, Amaechi’s Commitment To Tinubu Presidency – Adamu

The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Abdullahi Adamu on Thursday said he can not speak on the commitment of some presidential aspirants of the party to the presidential ambition of Bola Tinubu.

Adamu stated this while reacting to the silence of some presidential aspirants in the party who were defeated by Tinubu in the June 8 presidential primary.

Some presidential aspirants like Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo, Senate President, Ahmad Lawan and former Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi have not been committed to the activities of the party since their loss of the presidential ticket.

While Osinbajo was excluded from the Presidential Campaign Council (PCC) of the ruling party, Lawan and Amaechi were appointed as advisers in the new list released on Wednesday night.

The development came as Adamu recalled with displeasure, the state of affairs of the party when he assumed the reins in March this year.

Adamu while speaking at a media parley in Abuja on Thursday further stated that reconciliation is still ongoing.

The APC National Chairman added that the ruling party is talking to the presidential aspirants ahead of the 2023 general elections.

Adamu when asked about Osinbajo, Lawan and Amaechi, he said, “To the best of our knowledge, they are keying into this project.

“However, each of the aspirants at the convention is still alive and as journalists, you owe it a duty to have observed or have the state of mind that requires knowing where they stand today.

“It will be a bit absurd for me to start talking to them about things I feel you have not seen or heard from them. As for reconciliation, it is still a work in progress and we have been doing it.

“We have been talking to them and these guys are still very much around the political space. You can ask them whatever your observations are.”
