Hours to the commencement of the APC presidential primary election, a leading aspirant and Vice-President, Yemi Osinbajo has said he has no intention to drop his ambition to support anyone.
The election is scheduled to commence today, Monday 6th through Tuesday 7th June 2022.
The Vice President through his Campaign Council was responding to rumours that he has stepped down for another aspirant.
Chairman of the Council, Richard Akinnola in a statement on Sunday noted that there is no truth in the rumour, urging the general public to ignore it.
According to the statement, he said the purveyors of the fake news are “afraid of the huge political support base of the Vice President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo.”
The statement stressed that the VP is ready for the primary election and he is very sure of victory.
The Council also welcomed all delegates who are coming into the nation’s capital for the APC primary election.
“Welcomes our distinguished delegates from across the country to Abuja for our presidential primaries.
“As you settle down in Abuja, we implore you to kindly disregard various fake news making the rounds that Prof. Yemi Osinbajo has stepped down,” the statement read in part.
