However, his recent rift with the incumbent governor and successor, Gboyega Oyetola, over the control of APC in Osun State would put to test his continued support for Tinubu ahead of 2023 due to the kinship between Tinubu and Oyetola.Speaker of the House, Femi Gbajabiamila, is an unapologetic supporter of Asiwaju Bola Tinubu.

Senator Opeyemi Bamidele hails from Ekiti State and was in the small entourage that visited Tinubu at a London Hospital. Lado has never hidden his support for a Tinubu presidency and during the visit of the Northern Caucus of the House to the APC national leader, he referred to him as Mr President.

The Ebonyi governor also said he has consulted widely, saying: “I wouldn’t have done that without first coming to clear with Mr. President, that there is this feeling that the South East has not been president and that people feel that those of our leaders in the various political parties should indicate interest to contest.

“They should not dabble into politics or whom to support or whom not to support. I think that they hear it just like they hear other political parties’ aspirants. We will also write to them to notify them that, yes, they have capable sons and daughters that, if God wills, could do this job.
