The Progressive Project (TPP), an umbrella body of support groups backing Vice President Yemi Osinbajo’s presidential bid has bought the All Progressives Congress (APC) expression of interest and nomination forms for him
Osinbajo’s spokesperson, Laolu Akande, disclosed this via a post on his Twitter handle, on Thursday.
The lawmaker representing Kano South Senatorial District, Kabiru Gaya, picked the N100 million forms for Osinbajo at the International Conference Centre (ICC), Abuja.
“A passionate team of support groups and individual Nigerians from across the country have raised funds to support the purchase of APC nomination forms for the Vice President’s 2023 presidential bid.
“Today, the forms have been collected by representatives of the team just as the VP continues his interactions with APC stakeholders across the states.
“Today, he is in Cross River and Bayelsa States. It’s all about the desire and resolve of the VP to serve the people of Nigeria with all his heart, experience and insights,” Akande tweeted.
In the same vein, the Overseer of the Citadel Global Community Church, Tunde Bakare, has purchased the APC presidential forms.
Other presidential hopefuls on the platform of the party are still expected to pick their forms, just as APC has extended the sales of forms to May 10.
