Some of the All Progressives Congress (APC) governors, who won re-election in the just concluded 2023 governorship election, met with Vice President Yemi Osinbajo in Abuja on Wednesday, OsunDaily News reports.

The two governors who recently visited Prof. Osinbajo expressed gratitude to the Vice President for his unwavering support for them and the party.

OsunDaily News recalls that Osinbajo voted in Ikenne, Ogun state, during the presidential and governorship elections.

Meanwhile, the ambition of the Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Ahmed Wase, to take over from Femi Gbajabiamila in the 10th Assembly has received a boost.

OsunDaily News on Wednesday gathered that the Yobe State Governor, Mai Mala Buni, joined the list of other governors supporting his ambition.

The likes of Borno State Governor, Babagana Zulum, Ademola Adeleke (Osun), Nyesom Wike (Rivers State) and several others have thrown their weight behind Wase.

Governor Buni expressed his support for Wase when he visited him in Abuja with his team.

He said, “We in the APC and indeed the House of Representatives need you more than you need because there is no better time than now for us in the party to pay you back for your loyalty than now.

“Experience is not studied in the university; it evolves from institutional participation and entrenched ideas which you already have. For us, we know you will work based on experience because you are prepared more than any other.

“You didn’t need to come, I will work for you because to whom much is given, much is expected. You listened to us and stepped down when I was National Secretary even before the president, he knew about it and it is now time for us to reciprocate your gesture; someone must step down for you this time around.”
