Olusegun Obasanjo, Nigeria’s former president, chastised supporters of Vice President Yemi Osinbajo on Monday.

In Abeokuta, Ogun State, fans descended on the elder statesman’s library to rally support for Osinbajo’s presidential bid.

During the Coalition for Democracy on Africa (CoDA) summit at the Olusegun Obasanjo Presidential Library in Abeokuta, supporters of the Vice President asked for him to run in the 2023 general elections.

On Monday, during the submission, Osinbajo’s supporters invaded the auditorium, yelling “PYO for President.”

The former president, who was dissatisfied with their actions, stepped out to chastise the supporters and order them to remain silent.

According to reports, Obasanjo appeared to want to address the vice president’s supporters, but instead told them to take down their campaign signs because his library was not a campaign venue.

There had been calls for Osinbajo to run for president and fill President Muhammadu Buhari’s shoes when his term finishes next year.

However, there are rumors in some sectors that Osinbajo’s presidential ambitions may be thwarted by Bola Tinubu, the All Progressives Congress’s National Leader’s presidential ambitions.

Tinubu endorsed Osinbajo as Buhari’s running mate in 2015 after he served as the Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice in Lagos State under Tinubu.

This development is believed to be a hindrance to the presidential interest of the Vice President.
