Akwa Ibom group urges Osinbajo to join presidential race

A group, the Akwa Ibom State Coalition for Osinbajo 2023 has called on Vice President Yemi Osinbajo to run for the presidential election in 2023.

According to them, Mr Osibanjo appealed to all the demographic groups, including youths and women.

Addressing supporters after a road walk in support of the VP at the Ibom Unity Park on Saturday, the Coordinator of the group, Edidiong Idiong, said Osibanjo had the capacity, adding that Nigeria deserves the best at the moment.

“We are here gathered today to create awareness and sensitise our people and call on the Vice President, Professor Yemi Osinbajo, to throw his hat into the ring and contest for the office of the president in 2023.

“Osinbajo is the man with the Midas touch; he has the capacity, very articulate, he appeals to all demographic groups, and I don’t see anybody who has the kind of experience that he had,” Idiong added.

He maintained that the rally was a way of creating awareness and sending the message to the Vice President to indicate interest to join the presidential race.
