2023 : Tinubu seeks support of PGF, meet with Members shortly after Osinbajo declaration in Abuja


Former Lagos State governor and 2023 presidential hopeful, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, is currently meeting with members of the Progressives Governors Forum (PGF) at the Kebbi State Governor’s Lodge, Asokoro, Abuja.
The meeting is coming less than 24 hours after Vice President Yemi Osinbajo hosted the governors at his Aguda House residence on Sunday evening; where he disclosed his intention to run for the APC presidential ticket.

Although Tinubu is yet to officially declare for office, he had in January informed President Muhammadu Buhari of his intention to succeed him.
At the time of filing this report, 14 governors were already seated with the presidential hopeful.
The governors in attendance include Governors Abubakar Bagudu of Kebbi State, Nasir El-Rufai of Kaduna State, Bababjide Sanwo-Olu of Lagos, Abdullahi Ganduje of Kano, Gboyega Oyetola of Osun, Mai Mala Binu of Yobe, Simon Lalong of Plateau, Abubakar Badaru of Jigawa, amongst others.
Details of the meeting is still sketchy as the time of putting this report together
