Presidency 2023: People might be jealous I won a landslide at APC primary – Tinubu

The presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the 2023 general elections, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, at the 60th birthday anniversary of the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Rt. Hon Femi Gbajabiamila, in Abuja on Sunday stated that people might be envious, jealous that he won a landslide at the APC national convention to emerge the party’s presidential candidate.

The APC presidential candidate commended Gbajabiamila and deputy speaker Idris Wase for the role they played at the APC convention to ensure his victory in the presidential primary election.

Tinubu in his keynote address at the 60th birthday celebration of the Speaker of the House of Representatives disclosed that he is still searching for his running mate for the 2023 presidential election.

He eulogized Idris Wase for being a dependable ally in working with Gbajabiamila in the leadership of the House.

Tinubu had stated inter alia: “I could see a Deputy sitting down there too, you are very good symbols of unity, dependability, and honesty, thank you. Thank you for both of you, you’ve not rocked the boat. I will need to learn from both of you, how you made the pair work because I’m still searching for my running mate.

“What you did during my primary is a story for another day. I’ve spent more time, too many times and people might be bored, they might be envious too, they might be jealous. I won a landslide, I thank you.

“Femi, with your determination, and reach, you are a contributor to our democratic growth, thank you. It is about charting a path to success, you’ve done a good job and I say thank you, thank you.”
