Why Osinbajo Is Not Campaigning For Tinubu- Campaign Council

The All Progressives Congress Presidential Campaign Council has disclosed why Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo and some other stakeholders in the party are not involved in the campaign of the party’s presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu.

Since the APC flagged off its presidential campaign in Jos on November 15, 2022, some members of the party, including the Vice President has not attended any of the party’s campaign rallies, neither has he publicly expressed support for Tinubu’s Campaign.

Reacting, the APC Presidential Campaign Council spokesman, Festus Keyamo, said, the Vice President was acting on the directive of President Muhammadu Buhari to concentrate on governance.

He said, “Rotimi Amaechi (former Minister of Transportation) was there in Adamawa State and Jos recently; he has been going to the rallies but he has picked the ones he wants to attend.

“For the Vice President, it was a directive for him to face governance, and you can see Mr President has been going round campaigning. Also, Ngige is not campaigning against our party, he just said he will remain neutral for his own reasons and that is just one minister out of 43.

“We have an absolutely strong coalition in the APC unlike the PDP that has virtually collapsed”, he added.
