2023: I Don’t Know If Tinubu Is In Nigeria – Oshiomhole

Adams Oshiomhole

A former National Chairman of the All Progressive Congress, Adams Oshiomhole, has stated that he has no idea if the party's presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, is in the country.

The former Governor of Edo state stated this while answering questions on Channels Television’s programme, Politics Today, on Wednesday night.

He was asked why the APC has not inaugurated their campaign council ahead of the 2023 elections.

“We are yet to inaugurate our campaign council because the Chairman (President Muhammadu Buhari) was away in New York,” Oshiomhole said.

Oshiomhole, however, added that since Buhari is back in the country, that will happen soon.

When quizzed about Tinubu, he responded: “I don’t report to him every day. So I’m not sure if he’s around or not.”

Reminded that he is the Deputy Director-General of Tinubu’s campaign team and should be working closely with him, Oshiomhole said: “That will be when the campaign council is inaugurated and my office is activated. That has not been done yet.”
