The presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, on Sunday met with President Muhammadu Buhari.
Tinubu was accompanied to the meeting by APC National Chairman, Senator Abdullahi Adamu, according to a photo shared by the Special Assistant on Digital Communications to the President, Bashir Ahmad.
The meeting held hours after Buhari returned from a two-week medical vacation in London.
The President’s official jet touched down at the Presidential Wing of the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja around 7pm on Sunday.
While opposition parties like the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and the Labour party have since launched their campaigns for the 2023 elections, the ruling party is yet to officially flag off its presidential campaign, apparently awaiting Buhari’s return from London.
The official launch of the Presidential Campaign of the ruling All Progressives Congress is expected to be held in Jos the Plateau State capital on Tuesday and the meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari and the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, Senator Abdullahi Adamu may be aimed at putting all measures in place for a successful launch.
The former Lagos State Governor, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, had emerged as the Presidential Candidate of the All Progressives Congress in June this year at a Special National Convention and Presidential Primary held at the Eagle square in Abuja.
He had defeated all comers including the Vice President Professor Yemi Osinbajo, Former Rivers State Governor Rotimi Amaechi, Kogi State Governor Yahaya Bello, President of the Senate, Ahmad Lawan and Others.
He has also picked the Former Governor of Borno State, Senator Kashim Shettima, as his Vice Presidential running mate with the Plateau State Governor, Simon Lalong as the Director general of the Campaign Council.
President Muhammadu Buhari who is expected to be the Special Guest of honour has also expressed his delight at the emergence of the Former Lagos State Governor as the Presidential Candidate of the Party.
