After months of speculation and consultation, Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo on Sunday joined the presidential race ahead of the primary of the All Progressives Congress which comes up next month.

Osinbajo at a dinner he hosted at the Presidential Villa for the breaking of Ramadan fast (Iftar), the Vice-President informed the APC governors of his plan to succeed his boss, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), whose tenure as President ends in 13 months’ time.

It was learnt that no fewer than 12 APC governors out of the 23 were present at the meeting.

Some of the governors present include: Nasir El-Rufai (Kaduna), Dapo Abiodun (Ogun), Abdullahi Sule (Nasarawa), Babagana Zulum (Borno) and Babajide Sanwo-Olu (Lagos).

“The VP invited all the governors to the meeting and has informed them of his plan to contest. He is also seeking their support ahead of the primary. Of course, the Vice-President has also informed President Buhari of his intention to contest. He will be formally announcing his candidacy on Monday (today),” said a top source.

The Vice-President is expected to release a video of his formal declaration on Monday on all social media platforms wherein he will seek the support of all Nigerians for his ambition.

Already, Osinbajo support groups have opened a campaign and strategy office for him in the Wuse 2 area of Abuja.

Sanwo went there as a spy to give eyewitness report back to Tinubu. I hope Tinubu will not collapse when listening to the report.

Betraying Tinubu because he thinks he is close to power. If you win good for everyone including Tinubu. If you lose it won't go than well with all.

The governor's were invited for dinner. Just like amaecchi invited people for thanks giving.

Good luck pretender. He wants to exonerate himself from the government which he has been part of. Nigerians must know that from 2015, Buhari/Osibanjo ruled and gave them the worst governance they have ever experienced.

Under Osibanjo and Buhari, Nigerians have experienced the worst hardship they have ever experienced. Under Osibanjo and Buhari, ritual killing in the south west has reached an all time high due to excruciating poverty and hunger in their land. Under both, inflation has gotten out of control while Nigeria has nearly been sold due to borrowing. I don’t even want to talk about security, everyone knows what Osibanjo and Buhari have achieved.
