I Have Informed Buhari Of My Intention To Run For President – Tinubu

The National Leader of the All progressives Congress, Bola Tinubu, says he has informed President Muhammadu Buhari of his intention to contest the presidential election in 2023.

Tinubu disclosed this on Monday while briefing State House correspondents after meeting with President Buhari at the Aso Villa in Abuja.

The former Lagos State governor said the President is a democrat and therefore, has not asked him to shelve his ambition, which he said has been life-long.

He claimed that he has the confidence, vision, and capacity to build on the foundation laid by President Buhari to turn around the fortunes of the country.

When asked by reporters how it would look like being in the presidential race with the Vice President, Professor Yemi Osinbajo, who is also likely to run for president.

Mr. Tinubu dodged the question, saying he would not speak about individuals.
