A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, APC, in Osun State, Mr Olatunbosun Oyintiloye, has said that jostling for the position of Vice-President, ahead of 2027 election, could distract President Bola Tinubu from governance.
Oyintiloye, a former lawmaker, in a statement he personally signed yesterday, tasked politicians to slow down on politicking over 2027 election, saying distracting the president could be counter-productive for the economy which is just getting out of the woods.
Some people are already jostling to be Vice President. The President is facing serious tasks to keep the economy healthy, defeat the evil of insurgency, and fix critical infrastructure that are not being supported anymore.
The noise-making of these political opportunists, hell-bent on causing distractions, is capable of slowing down progress.
