Read Senate President's Non-committal Wísh to Osinbajo's Presidential Ambition

 

Senate President Ahmad Lawan sounded non-committal when he spoke with reporters after an Iftar dinner with Vice President Yemi Osinbajo on Tuesday.

The meeting was called by the VP to brief the APC Senate caucus about his presidential ambition and seek their support.

It was part of Osinbajo’s consultations with critical stakeholders and held at his official residence at Aguda House within the Presidential Villa, Abuja.

After the dinner told reporters what transpired.

“Naturally, the Vice President told us that he has expressed his interest and that he wanted to consult with the Senate APC caucus.

“He wanted us to hear from his mouth and we did and he was seeking our support in whatever way we can at the appropriate time and we wish the Vice President good luck in this endeavour”.

“But let me assure everyone that the Senate APC caucus and indeed the National Assembly caucus of the APC will continue to work very hard for our great party, the APC, to continue to provide services to Nigerians and also work hard to ensure that by 2023, the next administration is an APC administration at the centre and majority of the States in our country, by the Grace of God will be APC.”
