Tanko Yakasai, elder statesman and political adviser in the second Republic, has claimed the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) might field Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo or a National Leader of the party, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, in 2023.
Speaking with The Interview, Yakasai said it was because the region played a key role in the emergence of Buhari in 2019.

He also said the South-East don’t stand a chance of getting the ticket.

“The current calculation is that the vice-president is from the Southwest. Clearly, there is an unwritten understanding that when Buhari finishes, the Vice President will likely be the next presidential candidate of the APC.

“The Vice President is a Yoruba man. Even if it is not Osinbajo, somebody from there, probably Tinubu, will likely emerge as the candidate of the party.

“And with the performance of the party in the southeast, I don’t see any possibility that the party will think of giving its candidacy to the southeast as against the support it earned from the southwest.

“Apart from voting, don’t forget that there were some material support which APC enjoyed from the Southwest,” Yakasai said.

Tinubu for president? CBN vault is at risk

After that na Evans turn.

we never finish 2019 they are talking of 2023

Good governance is not even their talking point but who gets what. Oga o

Is APC the only political party available... same way SW contributed to APC, SE contributed to someother aswell.

If the SE feels they want a northerner to take their 1st term position, so be it.. its their choice, an unwritten agreement is not constitutional.

Tinubu is not contesting

Osinbajo is the man

this people from the east just like to talk talk without thinking....

You can run.

But unless buhari is recontesting, then apc will lose woefully.

They have lost states to pdp. The ones that belonged to pdp that they should woo, they have further alienated.

We dey wait.
