“Without any iota of doubt, all the meetings and consultations Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu is presently doing will eventually be in favour of Prof. Osinbajo. Asiwaju is so calculative and whoever has been following his political moves lately will understand the gimmick that Asiwaju is out to ensure the 2023 presidency is truly for the southwest.
“Osinbajo is Asiwaju’s political creation and no creator will allow such a beautiful and convincing work of his hands fail. Now, and as at last count, there are over 126 professional, cultural, political groups across the country working for Prof. Osinbajo.”

When will Osinbajo announce his presidential ambition?

Ajulo went on to state that Osinbajo will publicly announce his intention to join the presidential race at the right time as he is currently busy with official duties, a fact, which according to him, portrays that he is more committed to bringing real development to the country than furthering his political ambition.
