Vice President Professor Yemi Osinbajo, SAN is increasingly getting more calls from Nigerians to join the 2023 presidential race Media professionals and public affairs analysts are not left out in the calls, as some say it is a no-brainer for Osinbajo to join the race Although he is yet to declare his interest in the presidential race, many say the vice president is a sellable candidate for the ruling APC.

He also stated that the southwest could lose its opportunity to present the next president if Osinbajo is not picked. He said the person from the southwest that is acceptable to the entire country and the youth demography is Osinbajo. Also, on Arise TV's morning show programme, anchors Oseni Rufai and Reuben Abati stated that it was a no-brainer for Osinbajo to run for the 2023 presidency.
