In a bid to actualise his 2023 presidential ambition, the governor of Sokoto, Aminu Tambuwal, has started making serious consultations with Nigeria’s political bigwigs.
According to This Day, most of the prominent politicians Governor Tambuwal has met to realise his dreams are on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
The online newspaper reports that David Mark, a former Senate president and Theophilus Danjuma, who had served as a minister of defence, are among those the governor spoke with recently.
Moreover, the northern governor has reportedly tried to get Olusegun Obasanjo on his side as he fosters his mission.
However, Obasanjo’s media aide, Kehinde Akinyemi, said that Tambuwal met his principal to discuss issues of governance. Quoting the governor, Akinyemi said: “You know Baba is our leader, statesman.
And it is always good for us to come around to see how he is doing, pay homage and consult him on many issues of governance. That is why we have come this afternoon. And, we brought him the greetings and felicitations of the good people of Sokoto state.”
Added to this, the PDP’s National Working Committee (NWC) has made it clear that it is yet to decide on the party’s zoning arrangement for the 2023 presidential ticket.
Recall that Tambuwal had paid an unscheduled visit to Obasanjo on Saturday, August 22, at the Olusegun Obasanjo Presidential Library (OOPL) Pent House residence in Ogun state.
