2023: Joe Igbokwe Urges Osinbajo To Step Down For Tinubu

Joe Igbokwe, a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, APC has urged presidential aspirants raised by Bola Tinubu, National Leader of the All Progressives Congress, APC, to step down.

Igbokwe on his Facebook page said such presidential aspirants should step down for history and posterity’s sake.

Recall that Bola Tinubu, Dave Umahi, Rochas Okorocha, Yahaya Bello, Rotimi Amaechi, and Vice president Yemi Osinbajo have declared their intentions to succeed President Muhammadu Buhari.

On Monday, Osinbajo joined in the race of those vying for the exalted position in 2023

It was alleged that Tinubu had stepped down for Osinbajo to be Buhari’s running mate because both Buhari and Tinubu are Muslims and it was nearly impossible to sell a joint Muslim-Muslim presidential ticket in 2015.

Reacting to Osinbajo’s declaration, Igbokwe who is the Special Adviser on Drainage and Water Resources to Governor Babajide Sanwo- Olu of Lagos State, on Monday said, ”Let me drop it here for history and posterity:

”If you are one of the people Asiwaju raised up and you are eyeing the presidency of the Federal Republic of Nigeria show respect and withdraw from the race.”
