The rumoured ambition of former Lagos State governor, Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu, to run for the office of the President in 2023 is gradually becoming a reality as current and former speakers of houses of assembly in the South-West have thrown their weight behind the aspiration.
At a meeting in Ibadan, Oyo State capital, on Wednesday, the speakers gave their full endorsement to the rumoured presidential bid of the national leader of All Progressives Congress (APC), describing it as worthy and crucial against the current socio-political realities of the country.
The meeting which was convened by the Speaker of Lagos House of Assembly, Mudashiru Obasa, was held at Carlton Gate Exclusive Hotel, Ibadan, and attended by 20 current and past speakers of states’ houses of assembly in the South-West.
