Ahead of the Presidential Primary of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, a now-deleted poll conducted by TVC, a Nigeria-based broadcast outlet, tipped Vice President Yemi Osinbajo as the favourite for the party’s ticket.

TVC, with headquarters in Lagos, is owned by the former Lagos State Governor and APC Presidential Aspirant, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

It was gathered that the television station, on its official handle Wednesday, conducted an APC primary-themed poll asking, “Now that Atiku has emerged as PDP presidential candidate, who should APC field as its flag-bearer?”

Rotimi Amaechi, the immediate past Minister of Transportation; Vice President Yemi Osinbajo; incumbent Senate President Ahmed Lawan, and the APC National Leader, Bola Tinubu were listed.

It was discovered that after 1,721 people had voted, with Osinbajo leading with 43% of votes cast, followed by Tinubu with 40%, Amaechi with 8%, and Lawan with 9% of the total votes cast, the tweet was deleted.

In related news, a Twitter handle “@BiggDaaddyy1” known to be a dogged follower of the Asiwaju camp, and who was simultaneously hosting a Twitter space, had to delete his poll which asked: “Refusing Bola Tinubu APC ticket is a betrayal; YES or NO?”.

A total of 1,763 people voted; 73 voted NO and only 27% voted YES.
