The coalition of Northern youth group under the aegis of Osinbajo Awareness Campaign (OAC), has committed to begin the mobilisation of 20 million votes for Nigeria’s Vice President, Prof Yemi Osinbajo, SAN, for the 2023 presidential election.
The group, which launched on Sunday, October 17, 2021, in Kano State, made the vow while inaugurating its new office, as it expressed support for power shift to Nigeria’s South.
The National Coordinator of the group, Mubarak Haruna, speaking for the group while launching its secretariat in Kano, insisted that power must not remain in the North after 2023.
According to Haruna, the ruling All Progressive Congress (APC) should rather consider a power shift to the South if the party truly believes in sustaining a very united federation.

He said: “We are launching the awareness campaign across the Northern states to mobilise support for the Vice President, Professor Yemi Osinbajo towards making him our next president.
“None of us has ever met him in person but from all we know, we are convinced that the Vice President is the only tested and trusted candidate that can continue the good works started by President Muhammadu Buhari.
“It is obvious that Professor Osinbajo is a visionary leader, a patriotic citizen whose loyalty to one indivisible Nigeria is never in doubt; he is a detribalised Nigerian who is widely accepted, irrespective of religion and tribe across the country. We would support him make sure he wins.”
