Politicking for 2023 general elections has begun at full throttle. National Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Ahmed Bola Tinubu, announced his intention to contest for 2023 general election under All Progressives Congress (APC Political party, as he want to succeed his ally president Muhammadu Buhari.

And the race for the APC 2023 presidential ticket would be thrown open for all interested aspirants. Bola Ahmed Tinubu isn't the only option that the All Progressives Congress (APC) has before the 2023 general elections. There are others most influential APC politicians who can conveniently defeat the former Lagos State governor in the race for the APC 2023 presidential ticket.

Bola Ahmed Tinubu needs to prepare to face tough politicians who has also showed interest in the race for the number one citizen of the Federal Republic of Nigeria in 2023, It will be a serious struggle and the APC presidential ticket won't come to him on the platter of gold.

The All Progressive congress (APC) is in the lookout for a very strong, viable and influential person who can face the opposition party People Democratic party (PDP) in 2023 presidential seat.

The participations of certain chieftains of the APC will make it unprecedentedly difficult for The former Lagos state governor Bola Tinubu to clinch the ticket of the party. He is determined to take over from the incumbent president Muhammadu Buhari.

Below a list of 2 Most Influential Politicians Who May Defeat Tinubu In 2023 APC Presidential ticket.

Yahaya Bello Kogi State governor

Yahaya Bello is a young politician who now aspires to take over from President Muhammadu Buhari. The Kogi State governor has indicated that he would contest for the ticket of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and he has argued against the zoning formula. He can enjoy the support of the APC based on these reasons.

Yahaya bello performance as Governor in kogi state and his age.

At 46, Bello is the Youngest Serving Governor in Nigeria. The Civil Servant and Businessman turned Politician came into limelight after he emerged as Governor of Kogi State in January 2016.

Governor Yahaya Bello has already won many Nigerian heart for the role he played during the covid-19 situation even before his revealed his ambition for 2023 general election recently.

Yahaya Bello was the only governor who refused to complied with federal government, over lockdown during the covid-19 era, despite all the pressured from FG, NCDC, and from some governors.

The governor gave his best in aspect of security, we all know the issues of security situation in the country, Yahaya Bello was able to tackles the issues of kidnappings, Bandits, even the Fulani herdsmen were not give room in Kogi state.

Yahaya Bello will be a very big challenge for any candidate from opposition party if APC decides to give him Presidential ticket in 2023 election.

Vice President Yemi Osinbajo

Another influential APC politician who could defeat Bola Ahmed for All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential ticket in 2023 is vice president Yemi Osinbajo.

If vice president Yemi Osinbajo decides to take part in the struggle for the ticket of the All Progressives Congress, Bola Ahmed Tinubu would be stopped almost immediately. The vice president has several opportunities over the national of the APC (Bola Tinubu) as far as the issue of APC ticket is concerned.

The incumbent president would want his legacies to continue and since the vice president, Osinbajo, is a part of the story of the administration of Buhari, the president may just have to throw his weight behind his vice, Osinbajo. And if the president queues behind Osinbajo, several top politicians would do the same. Hence, the support of the president is enough the vice president to defeat the former Lagos state governor Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
I don't know the yardstick use to reach your Conclusion, however, I may still concur with Prof. Osinbajo but Yaya bello, not only a failure but disgrace to the youths. Remains worst governor till date.

NE Buni, Inuwa Yahaya.

Thiefnibus faith was sealed when his party rejected Direct primaries.

Yahaya Bello and Osinbajo are both comedians, they stand zero chance. The APC flag bearer will be handpicked by Buhari and his cabal, that’s what the likes of Amaechi, GEJ, and Fayemi are hoping on.



Is it Buhari and his cabal that will give GEJ & Co. the APC ticket and also make him win the general election while Atiku & PDP go to sleep?
Senseless analysis!
Re: 2 Influential Politicians In APC Who May Defeat Tinubu In 2023 APC Primaries by saintmm(m): 10:52am On Feb 10, 2022
To me, I don't see Tinubu and Osinbajo contesting together, one will eventually step down and support the other. Watch and see.
The people that stand a chance to maybe shake Tinubu is Anyim Pius Anyim and Ogbonnaya Onu. The rest does not even exist in politicking involving Tinubu, they are negligible entities.

Yahaya Bello does not have a well known and tested political structure.

Who are his allies?

How many elections has he influenced as a key figure?

How strong is his political network across Nigeria ?

He is a light weight compared to Tinubu.

Tinubu is in charge of key states in the South West. He has relevant contacts in the North as well and was influential in the emergence of Buhari as the President.

Tinubus fingerprints are all around Osinbajo (VP)


His fingerprints are all around the Speaker of the house of representatives.

He has fingerprints all around some notable ministers, senators and many more.

Tinubu has a lot of political influence and this is a fact.

In the game of politics Tinubu has more political influence than Osinbajo. However Osinbajo has the "power of the office" for now and a huge amount of goodwill.

Note: This is pure analysis
I like your analysis bro.
Thumbs up!
Meanwhile,Osinbajo has not even come out publicly to state his intentions for the presidency. To me I believe it's just a mere speculation. Osinbajo will not contest against Tinubu.

We don't. But we need someone that is more considerate in dipping his hands in the cookie jar.

Someone that his personal ambition and quest for power does not warrant enriching himself above the general populace.

I believe a lot of Nigerians not hoping to benefit personally, and not Yoruba will stand behind a Seyi Makinde candidacy if presented with Tinubu, Atiku and the likes.

We have to be deliberate in looking at the antecedents of an individual if we want a turn around. Doesn't necessarily mean the individual must be perfect. No politician is perfect.

We know being loyal to the powers that be. But if you are people centric, you'll perform better.

It all boils down to INEC giving credible elections. If they do, the parties will no longer be putting in yes men to do their bidding but they will present the people's favourites to attempt to win.

And there can be a campaign you let the people know that they can take the 1k and still vote in the best candidate of their choosing to secure their future.

Again, If Inec gives free and fair elections and vote privacy is enforced, then vote buying will not really be an issue. A concerted campaign against cash for vote will be successful.

Humans crave subjugation and out of all humans blacks crave it the most. That's the plain truth.

They need someone to look up to, someone whose ass they can kiss.

Nigeria was created as a pot of gold to be exploited.

It is really an insult to compare Jaganba and Yahaya Bello in any contest.
Tinubu had pay his due in Nigeria politics, his support systems are everywhere in the country, From national level to local level. But it will be better if he will respect and honor his old age and his past achievement and support one of his numerous boys who are making serious impacts in the country today, especially PYO...
Yahaya Bello on the other hand is just an opportunist, he cannot win 35% vote in Kogi state on a free and fair election, or how did he came back for second term as governor of his state?
I was even expecting to see big big names...

For someone to come fresh and become 1st runner up in a keenly contested primaries that later made him kogi governor, he must be really smart
