Kano Launches Campaign Movement For Vice President Yemi Osinbajo

Supporters of Vice President Yemi Osinbajo have launched a campaign movement for the 2023 presidential ambition of the vice president of Nigeria.

Speaking at the movement's event tagged; ‘’The New Nigerian Tribe’’ held in Kano on Saturday, House of Representatives Member representing Tarauni federal constituency, Hafiz Kawu described Professor Osinbajo as a loyal and dependable Nigerian who has all that it takes to lead the country.

The launch of Vice President Osinbajo’s Campaign Movement comes less than a week after the National Leader of the APC, Bola Tinubu, informed President Muhammadu Buhari of his ambition to run for the presidency.

Kawu who was a Personal Assistant to the Vice President between 2015 and 2019, added that Osinbajo believes in the youths of Nigeria and that is why most of those that work with him are below the age of forty, insisting that he believes in one Nigeria.

The leader of the group, Senator Olusola Adeyeye why spoke at the event insisted that professor Osinbajo remains the best candidate so far among those vying for the top job.

He described him as a “tested and trusted hand, with the right temperament, the intellectual firepower, and governance ethos best suited for this moment”.

 “For me, it is an easy choice to make. For millions of Nigerians, given chance, it should equally be an easy choice to make except that many are mired in pessimism that arose from wanton betrayal by governments. For the new Tribe here gathered plus millions of our cohorts all over Nigeria, our choice is clear and simple. It is Vice President Osinbajo!” Adeyeye explained that Osinbajo’s suitability for the nation’s top job was not in doubt given that his rise to prominence is not a fluke or a national infatuation but the consequence of his remarkable skills.

The Osun State-born politician who noted that Kano was picked for the launch of Osinbajo’s campaign movement because of its history of activism, level of political awareness and its massive votes that have always come as a political tide to push Nigeria in the right direction, said the numbers, political culture and resourcefulness of the people of Kano will serve as the raw materials for the future that Nigerians so desperately desire. “The choice of Kano as the place to launch the new tribe is symbolic and historic.

Notable politicians present at the event include former Deputy Governor of Kano State, Hafiz Abubakar, former Kano State House of Assembly member, Aliko Mukhtar Shuaibu and longtime political player AbdulRahman Baffa Yola.
