Support swells for Tinubu’s presidential ambition

Leaders of the south-south zone of the All Progressives’ Congress have thrown their weight behind the presidential flagbearer of the party, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, ahead of the 2023 general election.

National chairman of the APC south-south zone, Victor Giadom, said they have asked all members of the party from the six states in the geopolitical zone to help Tinubu achieve his presidential ambition next year.

Giadom spoke after hours of closed-door meeting with a delegation of the south-south leaders, including former governor of Edo state, Adams Oshiomhole; former minister of transportation, Rotimi Amaechi; former national chairman of the APC, John Odigie-Oyegun; and senate deputy president, Ovie Omo-Agege.

He said the APC is determined and will do whatever it takes to ensure that Tinubu successfully succeed President Muhammadu Buhari after the 2023 general election.

While pledging to ensure the party dominance in the six states of the region by 2023, the leaders applauded Amaechi for his political maturity and show of sportsmanship after losing the presidential ticket to Tinubu.
