Actor cum politician Desmond Elliot has congratulated Bola Ahmed Tinubu for clinching the presidential ticket of the All Progressives Congress (APC) for the 2023 general elections.
Tinubu defeated the likes of Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, former minister of transportation Rotimi Amaechi among others to become the party’s candidate for the nation’s top job.
The former Lagos governor polled 1,271 votes, about half the number of delegates who participated in the primary election. Amaechi got 316 votes while Osinbajo came third with 235 votes.
Rejoicing over Tinubu’s victory Desmond took to Instagram on Wednesday to congratulate the presidential candidate of the ruling party.
The 48-year-old wrote:
