A former Governor of Niger State, Babangida Aliyu, has said Vice President Yemi Osinbajo is the best person the All Progressives Congress (APC) can present as a candidate for the 2023 presidential election.
Speaking at the 2022 annual lecture of the Sir Ahmadu Bello Memorial Foundation on Tuesday in Kano State, the former governor urged APC not give mandate to “moneybags” who are aspiring to be president.
No “riff-raff or moneybags” will get to the highest office in the country, even if they bring out money.
“No matter how much money he has, let him bring the money and we will collect it, Mr. Vice President, wherever you go, we will follow,” he noted.
He described the vice president as the best candidate for the ruling party.
“Mr Vice President, do you know you are the best candidate in your party?” he asked,.
He said Osinbajo is the only candidate that knows the country and has the acceptance of everyone across the country regardless of tribe and religion.
He said they will not allow “riff raffs” to take over power even if they offer all the money in this world.
