Mr Lawan, who was defeated by Mr Tinubu at the APC Presidential primary, also wants the Yobe State governor to be reelected with the highest number of votes in Nigeria.
The President of the Senate, Ahmad Lawan, on Sunday said 98 per cent of votes in Yobe State in the forthcoming presidential election would be delivered to the candidate of the ruling All Progressives Congress, Bola Ahmed Tinubu and his running mate, Kashim Shettima.
The council, chaired by a former Governor of the State, Ibrahim Gaidam, has Mr Lawan as the alternate chairman and another former Governor, Bukar Abba Ibrahim, as grand patron. “And we can do that by mercilessly committing ourselves to our party rather than regional thinking or sentiments. “Borno and Yobe are the same people. They have given us every possible support before, and one good turn deserves another. It is for us to also do the same for them.
