The Deputy Chairman of the House of Representatives Committee on Finance, Mr. Yomi Ogunnusi, has said the All Progressives Congress will win next year’s presidential election if it fields the Speaker of the House, Aminu Tambuwal, as its presidential candidate; and Rivers State Governor, Rotimi Amaechi, as his running mate.
Ogunnusi, who represents Ifako/Ijaye Federal constituency at the lower chamber of the National Assembly, said a former Head of State, Maj. Gen Muhammadu Buhari, should not emerge as the party’s presidential candidate but should remain as an elder statesman.
Also, he said a former Governor of Lagos State, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, should not be involved in political administration but should stay on the sideline and play the “Obafemi Awolowo role as leader of the Yoruba.”
He said this during an interview with our correspondent shortly after presenting his scorecard to his constituents in Lagos, on Sunday.
He said, “In my opinion, Tambuwal should be the presidential candidate of the APC while Amaechi should be the Vice President. Tambuwal is not a tribalist, he knows all of us in the House up to our constituencies.”
