It is not news again that the Nigerian Vice President, Professor Yemi Osinbajo, has declared his intention to contest for President in the 2023 presidential election.
Following his declaration, Tinubu who doubles as his political Godfather and leader in the All Progressive Congress (APC), was reportedly shocked to see his boy declaring to challenge him in the party’s primary elections.

Shortly, after Osinbajo’s declaration, the former Lagos State Governor reportedly summoned Progressives Governors to an emergency meeting, where 14 APC’s governors were present, including those who attended the Vice President’s official declaration.
