Tambuwal had accused the former Senate President of spreading false report about the botched consensus, vowing to march on with his presidential ambition.

Saraki, who is a former two-term governor of Kwara State, has promised to revive Nigeria’s economy is he is voted to succeed President Muhammadu Buhari in 2023.

He promised to appointment many youths and women into strategic positions if he becomes President.

The former Senate President also dismissed those calling for the presidency to be zoned to the South-East, insisting that it was the turn of the North-central to produce the country’s leader.
