The Lagos State Chapter of the All Progressive Congress has said that the absence of Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo in Asiwaju Bola Tinubu’s will not have any effect on the party.
Although the APC Presidential Campaign Council spokesman, Festus Keyamo, had said the Vice President was acting on the directive of the President to concentrate on governance, there are concerns that the VP would have been active in the campaign if he had emerged as the APC presidential candidate.
Speaking in an interview with our correspondent, the APC spokesperson in Lagos State, Seyi Oladejo, said the absence of the VP would not affect Tinubu’s victory at the poll. “We are not bothered; we have an enduring structure to deliver for the election. Remember we have never lost the state since the advent of this democracy and everything points to our victory,” he said.All rights reserved.
