Former Kano State Governor, Senator Kabiru Gaya, says Vice President Yemi Osinbajo was not sidelined in the formation of the All Progressives Congress, APC, presidential campaign team.
Gaya said Osinbajo is committed to the presidential ambition of the APC candidate, Bola Tinubu.
Addressing journalists in Kano, Gaya said Tinubu and Osinbajo are working together.
Gaya said: “I am a member of the Tinubu campaign team, so the issue of sidelining anyone does not arise.
“Even the president has said he wants Osinbajo to be with him in running the affairs of the country to ensure a seamless handover.
“There is nothing like Osinbajo is sidelined because, after the primaries, we were in Osinbajo’s house when Tinubu came and said he needed our support.
“We had over two hours’ discussion. They are working together. Politics should not divide us.”
Recently, APC constituted its Presidential Campaign Council, PCC, with most of the party’s chieftains as members.
While President Muhammadu Buhari made the list, the Vice President notably missing.
