Tinubu is our Capo in South – Akeredolu
The Chairman of the Southern Governors’ Forum and Governor of Ondo State, Oluwarotimi Akeredolu of Ondo State has described the National Leader of the All Progressives Congress, APC, as a ‘Capo’.
Akeredolu, who described Tinubu as a leader in the southern region of the country, said he was awaiting the arrival of the APC leader in order to take critical decisions ahead of 2023.
Akeredolu, who is the Chairman of South West Governors’ Forum stated this during an interview on Arise Television on Sunday.
While stressing that his recent visit to the former Lagos State Governor in London had nothing to do with the 2023 election.
On whether he will support Tinubu as Presidential Candidate of APC in 2023, Governor Akeredolu said only the party where he is a member will decide that.
“APC is a party. APC will decide who the candidate will be. I have said it several times. I’m going nowhere. If I leave APC, I am going back to my chamber. For me, whatever APC decides,I will follow.
“We went to London because It was important for us to go and see for ourselves. How he’s doing. He’s the Capo for us here. By the time he comes, we can make some serious decisions.”
