Ex-Aide Disputes Claims of Buhari's Lack of Support for Osinbajo's Presidential Ambitions

A former aide, Babafemi Ojudu, has dismissed claims made in a new biography suggesting that President Buhari did not support Vice President Osinbajo's potential presidential bid in 2023. The book, authored by Dr.

Charl Omol, alleged that Buhari withheld support for Osinbajo and favored Bola Tinubu. Ojudu countered these claims, stating that Buhari consistently endorsed Osinbajo and assured his support.

Ojudu highlighted that Buhari advised Osinbajo on important decisions and emphasized the need for stability. The controversy surrounding the book has sparked a public response from Buhari's camp, clarifying their stance on Osinbajo's candidacy.
