APC have only choosen him as a dummy VP candidate in order to meet up with the INEC deadline day of day of all submission of names of candidates.

Politics is not all about profile. For Apc to have a srious stake in this election, GMB has to be paired up with another rugged politician with formidable political structure - say Amaechi, Fashola or Oshiomole.

Why does APC keep mixing politics and religion?
The first thing they say about this Osinbajo is that he is a christian pastor!
why?
Do they have ulterior motive and guilty conscience?

This is Tinubu's choice. VPs are usually chosen for political gains but the gentleman isn't.

Nevertheless I don't see achievements in his CV.

[size=14pt]THE SAME REASON EBELLE GOODUCK WAS ROLLING ON THE ALTAR OF KM 46 IN 2010/2011 TO DECIEVE ALL CHRISTIANS.

EVEN DADDY G.O IS AWARE OF THE GREEN SNAKE NOW.

MY OWN CHURCH (KM 10) IS AWARE OF THE CHAMELEON TOO.

FAREWELL TO OTUOKE KING. JUST TRY TO USE YOUR POT-HOLE FREE EAST- WEST EXPRESSWAY.
