He said he would recommend a younger person to the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) if he wanted him to work with him as he emphasized that they are still talking about this, The Nigerian Tribune report noted.
“I do not think there is any job in the government that you can not give to a younger person. Like I said, we are still talking. Nigeria passport is the only passport I have. Whatever I can do to make sure our country is better, I will make sure I do it. But I will always say I do prefer actions.”
