2023: Inside sources say Tinubu may be forced to join SDP
Meanwhile, it was earlier reported that Tinubu had begun consultations with the Social Democratic Party (SDP), as an alternative platform to actualise his presidential ambition, if his party failed to give him the ticket.
Sources close to the SDP said Tinubu met with some leaders of the political party recently to seek a soft landing for him.
The move by the former Lagos state governor was said to have been triggered by the recent event that led to the emergence of consensus candidates for the APC chairmanship and some other positions at the national convention of the party in Abuja.
A stalwart of the APC quoted in the report said:
“Tinubu is not leaving anything to chance as the political horse-trading continues among the major presidential aspirants in the ruling APC.
“Our leader cannot be railroaded to support any outsider. He has committed too much to making Nigeria what it is today and it will be a disservice to Nigeria for anyone to block Tinubu from taking the presidential ticket in 2023.”
