Tinubu has deep structure like Abiola – Joe Igbokwe reacts to Osinbajo’s declaration
The Special Adviser to Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu on Drainage and Water Resources, Joe Igbokwe, has reacted to Yemi Osinbajo’s declaration for the 2023 presidential election.
Earlier today, April 11, 2022, the Vice President declared his intention to run for president of Nigeria on platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in 2023.
Reacting to the declaration, Igbokwe said Bola Tinubu, who had earlier declared his ambition, has a deep structure to win the presidential election.
The APC chieftain added that Tinubu has built the structure across the country for over 20 years.
Igbokwe said this during an interview with The PUNCH shortly after Osinbajo’s declaration.
He said, “Tinubu has a structure, just like (MKO) Abiola did in 1993; Abiola had a history before 1993. Asiwaju (Tinubu) also has a history but let’s wait and see. The structures on ground will be the determining factor. We want Asiwaju.”
