The Governor of Borno State, Babagana Zulum has stated that the National Assembly and other stakeholders will determine the fate of the presidential ambition of the Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo, in 2023.

Zulum disclosed this when he received members of Progressive Consolidation Group (PCG) led by Dr Aliyu Kurfi at the state Government House, Maiduguri.

He further stated that the forthcoming presidential primary and other elections will not stop the All Progressives Congress from picking a consensus candidate to keep the unity of the party intact.

Zulum when calling for unity within the party said, “I am solidly behind initiatives aimed at enhancing the unity of our party and progress of Nigeria.

“At this point in our political history, no one and nothing will prevent the party from moving in unison for a presidential candidate.”

The Borno State Governor speaking on Osinbajo’s aspirations said, “We have to identify the right individuals to lead the nation, and the task requires governors, party hierarchy and the President working together.”

He vowed to keep the state chapter of the party intact to give APC victory across the country in 2023.

Kurfi while responding to the statement of the Governor said Zulum and other governors elected on the platform of the APC, leaders across the structure of the party would reach a consensus concerning Osinbajo’s bid to the country’s top seat.

He said, “Osinbajo deserves the right of first refusal, even in a crowded race with great individuals.”

Kurfi further stated that Osinbajo stands out to give victory to the party in the forthcoming election due to his level of competence and intellect to do the job better than all others.

He added that the self-discipline of the Vice President and competence during President Muhammadu Buhari’s absence has shown that he is the best candidate for the party.
