Osinbajo meets APC legal team over 2023 elections

Vice President Yemi Osinbajo has met with the All Progressives Congress (APC) legal team and some senior lawyers in President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration over the 2023 general election.

It was gathered that Osinbajo met with the APC legal team at the Presidential Villa after the Federal Executive Council (FEC) meeting in Abuja on Wednesday.

The meeting was attended by two ministers who are Senior Advocates of Nigeria, Babatunde Fashola (Works and Housing) and Festus Keyamo (State for Labour and Employment).

The APC National Legal Adviser, Ahmed El-Marzuk, and his predecessor, Babatunde Ogala, SAN, were also in attendance among other party and government officials.

The attendees, who were seen at the Vice President’s wing of the Presidential Villa, refused to speak to State House correspondents after their meeting with Osinbajo.

However, a reliable source disclosed that the APC legal team came to discuss planning and reviewing the party’s preparedness for the forthcoming general election with the Vice President.

In the 2023 elections starting later this month, the APC and other main parties are fielding candidates contesting over 1400 elective positions at both federal and state levels across the country.
