Societynow.ng gathered that there are strong indications Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu has decided on who replaces the late Bayo Osinowo as the Senator representing Lagos East.

The Senatorial seat became vacant with the death of Osinowo on June 15, 2020, due to complications for Covid-19.

The popular politician barely spent a year in office.

In the face of rising – and passionate – interests within the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in Osinowo’s vacant seat, insiders disclosed that there are strong indications that Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the shots caller in all affairs of the party in Lagos state has settled on ‘’a worthy successor.’’

‘’The person is someone you least expected’’ a source stated.

Societynow.ng gathered that the ‘’identity’’ of the ‘’chosen one’’ within the APC to fill the vacant Senatorial seat is known to members of Tinubu’s inner caucus.

‘’The name can’t be revealed for obvious reasons’’ societynow.ng gathered.

The ‘’obvious reasons’’ refer to the ‘’ motions’’ of the stipulations by constitutions to be carried out by the party – including a shadow election – before the candidate for the bye-election that would democratically determine the new occupier the Lagos – East Senatorial seat is announced by the APC.
