Despite widespread reports that the G-5 Governors have reached an agreement to back the All Progressives Party presidential candidate, Ahmed Bola Tinubu, a reliable source within the APC campaign team, revealed that talks are still ongoing.
According to reports, the G-5 Governors and Ahmed Bola Tinubu met in London to discuss the 2023 presidency. The outcome of the meeting has been rumored in various circles.
A source told Daily Post on Friday that Tinubu’s agreement with the governors is subject to further consultations with APC party structures in Rivers, Benue, Abia, Enugu, and Oyo States.
“Yes, a deal has been reached; however, negotiations are still going on; we have a formidable structure in all these states(Benue, Rivers, Oyo, Abia, Enugu), so we have to go back and consult this with structures. You know Bola Ahmed Tinubu is an experienced Politician; he wants to do further consultation on the matter”, the source stated.
Nyesom Wike of Rivers State, Seyi Makinde of Oyo State, Samuel Ortom of Benue State, Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi of Enugu State, and Okezie Ikpeazu of Abia State are the G-5 governors.
