2023: Tinubu's Presidential Ambition Splits APC Governors

Ahead of the 2023 presidential election, a fresh crisis is brewing in the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) over the ambition of Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, former governor of Lagos State, to suc­ceed President Muhammadu Buhari as Nigeria’s next leader.

It is obvious that the indirect primaries gives state governors an upper hand in deciding who succeeds them no matter how incompetent or unpopular a candidate is. Secondly, it is cost effective for them considering the fact that they may not have enough resources to buy all party members at the polling units. The matter of e-transmission of election results doesn't also sit well with many of the traditional politicians i.e the expert riggers. Anyone who has keenly followed the 2019
