He recently revealed this while speaking to the press, and Nigerians have been reacting.
According to him, those propagating the Muslim-Muslim ticket as running mate to Asiwaju Bola Tinubu in the party are nothing but propagandists who are working for their selfish interests.
He added that Yemi Osinbajo was already the heir to the throne who should have been given the right of first refusal in the contest in which he offered himself to serve the nation.
His words, “But I can tell you that the Vice President won the special convention without fear of contradiction.”
“As the Vice President, he is an heir to the throne, a crown prince, who should have been given the right of first refusal in the contest in which he offered himself to serve the nation, and in which he had national acceptability.”
“He had the best speech and his manifesto at the convention was the best. He identified problems and preferred solutions to them more than all other aspirants. For someone who has never contested any election before and with no politicking knowledge, to emerge third at the convention, I consider him the greatest winner of the convention.”
“I have no doubt in my mind that Nigeria has lost the best presidential candidate that would have been produced.”
“As a loyal member of the APC, I will work for the total victory of my party’s flagbearers from bottom to top and I’m confident that our party will emerge victorious in the general election.”
“His teaming supporters are those of us who are committed to his ideals out of the conviction that he has the knowledge, experience, capacity, capability, mental and physical fitness, and all that is required to transform our dear nation to greatness.”
“It may also interest Nigerians to know that PYO is opposed to monetisation of our democracy and politics, and has refused to encourage delegate or vote-buying.”
