Senator Babafemi Ojudu, the Political Adviser to President
Muhammadu Buhari has insisted there is no rift between Vice President Yemi
Osinbajo and the National Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola
Tinubu.
According to him, both Tinubu and Osinbajo are in the same
political family.
Ojudu, in a statement on Monday, also noted that the
Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has not given the go-ahead for
any politicking.
He stated these in reaction to reports and a live TV
programme where “two persons supposedly representing Asiwaju Support Group and
Osinbajo Support Group were pitched against each other.”
Ojudu said: “As a law abiding citizen, Osinbajo will not
commence any act in this regard until INEC blows the whistle, and in any case
the VP (Osinbajo) has not indicated interest in the 2023 elections.”
Ruling out any friction, Ojudu added: ”Asiwaju Bola Ahmed
Tinubu and Vice President Yemi Osinbajo are members of the same party.
“Osinbajo regards Tinubu as a respected leader of a
political family to which he belongs and will therefore, not for any reason
endorse an endeavor that seeks to pitch them against each other.”
He further warned those trying to foist a crack among APC’s leaders to desist, as “Osinbajo and Tinubu’s relationship dates way back and it shall continue to wax strong.”
