Outspoken Abuja Lawyer, and Coordinator, Progressive Lawyers For Osinbajo, PYO, Dr. Kayode Ajulo, has urged former Military President, General Ibrahim Babangida, to advise the APC National Leader, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, to shelve his presidential ambition and pave the way for the Vice President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, a Senior Advocate of Nigeria, SAN.
Ajulo, former National Secretary of Labour Party, LP, gave the passionate plea, Thursday, after the news of the APC National leader’s visit to Babangida hit the airwaves. As ex-military President who had encountered such a senario before, Ajulo argued that IBB was in the best position to prevail on the former Lagos State Governor to preserve his reputation by not running for President IN 2023..
Ajulo recalled that “in 2007, after signifying his interest to run for the office of the President , President Babangida withdrew the bid for President Umaru Yar’adua on the ground that Yar’adua was his younger brother.
“Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu is the political leader of Prof. Osinbajo. In fact, he was a major influence on how the VP got his present position and I am sure he’s proud of his numerous achievements. Asiwaju will do well to throw his weight behind the VP to become the next President.”
