Why northern govs supported Tinubu during the poll, Masari speaks

According to him, the northern governors under the All Progressives Congress (APC) supported Tinubu in order to respect the zoning formula of the party.

He added:

“God had saved us from shame during the last general elections in the country where our party, the All Progressives Congress APC recorded huge successes.

“Anyone in this country with foresight should thank God again because had it been our party did not win the election, people may think that the Federal Government failed Nigerians.”
