When the Vice President threw his hat into the ring for the APC presidential ticket, his move was interpreted as betrayal in some quarters.
Osinbajo did not feature in the APC presidential campaign council, but the party said he was excluded on the order of President Muhammadu Buhari to allow him concentrate on governance.

However, Tinubu on Monday while addressing a group in Kano that backed Osinbajo’s presidential bid, said he did not have anything against the vice president.
He said, “I have nothing against him. I have been to his house after the primaries. I saw him on the day of the goodwill message [at] the retreat organised by the president.
“And a man who forgives, a man who asks for forgiveness from Allah fully deserves forgiveness. If you cannot give forgiveness, how are you asking from Allah? To me, it is over.”
