Tinubu said Osinbajo, who was hesistant, and asked him to tell the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, RCCG, Pastor Enoch Adeboye about the issue.
According to Daily Post, the APC leader said “He was a bit hesitant as he asked me to go and tell Pastor Adeboye. I replied by telling him that he needed to inform Pastor Adeboye himself, after all, there had been times when if we needed to see Pastor Adeboye, he was the one who facilitated it.
“I reminded him that since the final choice was not for me to make, I should not go to Pastor Adeboye until after the announcement of his name.”
