Support for Osinbajo’s presidency is drummed up in 2023

Progressive Consolidation Group (PCG), a pro-All Progressives Congress (APC) group, has drummed up support for Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo to run for president in 2023 as the general election approaches.

According to the group, Osinbajo is a good candidate for the presidency in 2023 for re-strategizing the priorities of the Muhammadu Buhari presidency, enhancing progressive reforms, and national unity.

Ahmed Mohammed, the PCG’s National Coordinator, revealed this while leading other members of the group from the country’s six geopolitical zones on a courtesy visit to Katsina State Governor Aminu Bello Masari at the Government House in Katsina on Friday.

He explained that the vice-president is the most qualified and acceptable candidate for sustaining and improving President Buhari’s positive gains, achievements, and legacies, as well as tackling the nation’s many developmental challenges.

“In light of the country’s current developmental challenges, it is only prudent for the party to select the most qualified and acceptable candidate to maintain and improve on President Muhammadu Buhari’s positive gains, achievements, and legacies,” he said.

“In light of this development, we at the PCG are confident that an Osinbajo presidency in 2023 will reduce tensions, promote unity and stability, and accelerate progress in all sectors of the economy.

“As a result, we have come before you to ask for your help, wise counsel, and advice in order to increase our chances of collective success.”

Governor Masari responded by saying that what the ruling APC needs right now is for members to ensure that the party wins the upcoming general election regardless of ethnic differences.

According to the governor, the APC administration has made significant progress in terms of security, pension and gratuity payments, and development projects in the country over the last six years.
