A founding member of the Arewa Consultative Forum and elder statesman, Alhaji Tanko Yakassai, has revealed that he would support the National Leader of the All Progressives Congress, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu’s presidential bid in 2023.Yakasai told Saturday PUNCH that the ex-governor of Lagos was at his Abuja residence to solicit his support for his presidential ambition in the next general elections.
The PUNCH had earlier reported that the South-West Agenda 2023, a political movement mobilising support for Tinubu to contest the 2023 presidential election, was inaugurated in Lagos in October by Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, and other party chieftains. In October, the Northern Caucus of House of Representatives, led by Deputy Speaker, Ahmed Idris Wase, had also paid a get-well visit to the APC leader in London and declared support for Tinubu’s reported 2023 presidential ambition.on Friday, 96-year-old Yakassai said he had earmarked two politicians to support for Presidency in 2023.
On the APC leader’s visit, the elder statesman said, “He just came to visit me but actually I have two of them that I have earmarked right from the beginning and I made a vow that anyone of them who came to ask for my support first is the person I would support. Tinubu is the first person.”
AsiwajuTinubu is just a replica of MBuhari, so let him back off.
