It was reported that Osinbajo did not attend any of Tinubu’s presidential campaign rallies across the country.

This might not be unconnected to their differences prior to the APC presidential primaries in 2022.

Osinbajo had endured a frosty relationship with Tinubu during the APC presidential primaries in 2022, as followers of the latter believed that the Vice President should have backed his political godfather.

During the APC primaries, some staunch supporters of Tinubu had tagged Osinbajo a traitor a betrayer and Judas, for daring to stand against the former Governor of Lagos State.

One of such supporters, Joe Igbokwe, the Special Adviser for Drainage and Water Resources to Governor Babajide Sanwo- Olu, subscribed to the notion of Osinbajo being a betrayer.NYSC portal
