Why Buhari chose 10 states to join Tinubu’s campaign

Since President Buhari joined his party’s presidential campaign flag-off on Tuesday, November 15, 2022, in Plateau state, the president has stayed away from the presidential rallies of his party.

This gave room to insinuations that the president has little or no commitment to the Bola Tinubu-Kashim Shettima presidential ticket of the APC.

But the presidency announced in a statement on Friday, January 6, 2023, that Buhari did not want to abandon his primary job as the leader of the country, adding that the president had agreed to campaign for Tinubu in 10 states.
