Tinubu’s Men Mum As Babangida Endorses Osinbajo

The camp of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu has kept mum to reports of the endorsement of Vice President Yemi Osinbajo for the 2023 presidency by Ex-Military President of Nigeria, General Ibrahim Badamosi Babangida (IBB).

 GreenWhiteGreen GWG reports that Babangida proclaimed Osinbajo as a good choice for the presidency when a group of canvassers purportedly working for him visited the former military leader in his Hill Top residence in Minna, Niger State.

“I know the Vice President very well. He is a good man. A man who has conviction about Nigeria; a man who can communicate with the country and inspire people. Such a man is a worthy person to work with. We need a good man to lead Nigeria.”

Babangida further described Osibanjo who is a product of the Tinubu political family as a man who has a passion for the country, noting “Nigeria is a good country too; the people of Nigeria are good. You must learn to understand people and communicate with them. And the constant discussion is key.

“I want to convey my best wishes to the Vice-president through you. And I want you to tell him to stay on the cause. I know it’s not easy but he has the conviction. I wish him the best,” Babangida noted.

The elder statesman further revealed that he decided to speak to them because of the Vice-President, insisting that he knew Osibanjo has what it takes to be a good leader.

Speaking following the endorsement, the National Convener of the Organization, Mr. Ojo Foluso expressed joy with the endorsement of the former military leader, saying, ”we came to consult the Oracle and the Oracle has spoken. General IBB is an oracle because he understands Nigeria”.

However, supporters of Tinubu have refused to formally respond to the endorsement of Osinbajo by Babangida. A source in the camp of the national leader of the APC was, however, indifferent to the reported plots asking where the vice-president would get the structure to achieve his aspiration.
