APC governors backing Tinubu for presidency

He noted that the governors have a keen interest in the actualisation of Tinubu’s presidential bid.
According to him, the state executives were queuing behind the APC stalwart because of what he called Tinubu's administrative acumen, mental capacity, rare leadership quality, and unequalled political structures which cut across the six geo-political zones.
