Kabiru Gaya, senator representing Kano South district, has said Vice-President Professor Yemi Osinbajo (SAN) was not sidelined in the formation of the Presidential Campaign Council (PCC) of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
POLITICS NIGERIA reports that Gaya, who is an ally of Osinbajo, stated that Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, presidential candidate of the APC for the 2023 election, and the VP “are working together”.
“I am a member of Tinubu campaign team, so the issue of sidelining anyone does not arise. Even the president has said he wants Osinbajo to be with him in running the affairs of the country to ensure seamless handover.
“There is nothing like Osinbajo is sidelined because after the primaries, we were in Osinbajo’s house when Tinubu came and said he needed our support. We had over two hours’ discussion. They are working together. Politics should not divide us,” Daily Trust quotes Gaya as saying.
