2023: CBN GOV, GODWIN EMEFIELE’S BRANDED CAMPAIGN BUSES SURFACE

As the quest for for who occupies the position of the president after President Muhammadu Buhari heats up, images of branded campaign vehicles of Godwin Emefiele, governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), have surfaced online.

Emefiele, who is alleged to be interested in running for president under the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC) come 2023, has continued to attract attention with many support groups urging him to declare.

Though the CBN governor is yet to admit that he has interest in the race, insisting that he is focused on his job and on helping President Muhammadu Buhari finish on a high, he has not dismissed same outright either.

Meanwhile, his alleged ambition is said to be causing divisions between the Aso Rock cabal and some top leaders of the APC.

This is because while spirited efforts are being made by some officials in the Presidency, to draft the CBN boss into the race, some leaders of the party are currently against the move and this is generating bad blood within the APC political circles as some of the leaders have opposed such moves.

Emefiele, who hails from Delta State was appointed in 2014, and got reappointed in 2019 for the second term of five years by President Muhammadu Buhari. The second tenure will lapse in 2024.

According to rumours from grapevine, the CBN governor is being wooed by a section of the Presidency and some APC governors.

Emefiele will, however, have to battle for the ticket with the national leader of the party, Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu, Ebonyi State Governor Dave Umahi, Senator Orji Kalu
