General Muhammadu Buhari, the presidential
candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) today selected Law Professor
Yemi Osinbajo as his running mate for vice president.
Osinbajo’s nomination was concluded last
night after APC national leader, bola Tinubu, was asked to shelf his ambition
that nearly tore the party apart.
An early morning meeting between Ogun state
governor, Ibikunle Amosun and Buhari finally resolved the
acrimonious logjam in the party.
Osinbajo beat other potential candidates that
reportedly included Governor of rivers State, Rotimi Amaechi, Governor Adams
Oshiuomhole of Edo State, and former Lagos Senator Olorunnimbe Mamora
The APC will make the final announcement in a
short while.
