Members of the progressive group (TPP) have expressed the readiness to procure the All progressive congress (APC) expression of interest and nomination forms for the Vice President Prof Yemi Osinbajo in pursuit of his presidential ambition.
TPP’s chairman, Senator Kabiru Gaya, who made this known to reporters in Abuja, explained that the gesture speaks volume of the depth of acceptability of Osinbajo among Nigerians.
Gaya, who chairs the Senate committee on INEC, maintained that Osinbajo would not be intimidated by his adversaries to drop his presidential ambition.
The Kano-born politician contended that Osinbajo stands out as the most competent aspirant to succeed President Muhammadu Buhari after his tenure in May 2023.
“Even an internal issue of the price of our party’s nomination form is being deliberately misinterpreted in some circles when we feel confident that unlike moneybags, our truly populist candidate is popular enough to pool supporters’ token donations and raise such money with ease,” Gaya said.
