As the 2023 presidential election is gathering momentum, the member representing Tarauni federal constituency, Kano, Hon. Hafizu Kawu has said that the Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo is a marketable presidential aspirant if he chooses to run for the Presidential election in 2023.
Kawu made this known during a press conference on Monday in Kano.
The lawmaker, who urged Osinbajo to contest the Presidential election in 2023, said that the move will consolidate on the achievements of president Muhammadu Buhari.
He said, “Osinbajo is a saleable candidate for the party whose antecedents, experience, honesty, capacity and capability speak volumes.
“As a close ally and former aide of the Vice President, I chose to make this briefing without his consent, yet I am doing it due to Osinbajo’s impressive vision for the country.

“His foresight in so many areas will be useful for Nigeria. He is loyal, detribalised and a man of God who I think is natural successor of President Muhammadu Buhari.
“I worked with him from 2015 to 2019, I know him personally and I also know his capabilities and potentials,” he explained.

Kawu who commended President Buhari for initiating giant projects in all parts of the country, said if given the mandate, Osinbajo will complete all the ongoing projects and initiate new ones.
The lawmaker also commended the President Buhari-led government for the achievements recorded so far in tackling security challenges facing the country.
“This administration scores very high in its fight against the insurgents, reclaiming our territories and reducing bombings nationwide. It has redeemed the hope of Nigerians,” he added.
