Osinbajo screened, says he’s hopeful of APC’s victory in 2023
Vice President Yemi Osinbajo has been screened by the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential screening panel.
After the screening, Mr Osinbajo spoke with journalists, saying the exercise was fruitful and expressed optimism about the party’s chances ahead of the 2023 presidential election.
“We were able to discuss several issues, issues of national and party concerns, and it went very well indeed; we had a very good chat. Of course, we are ahead of any party; way ahead, APC is ahead,” he said.
The John Odigie-Oyegun-led panel, which commenced work on Monday, will drill no fewer than 25 APC presidential aspirants who are filing for the party’s ticket.
