Tambuwal said he would make his position public on the matter “in days to come”.

“We still believe of his integrity, patriotism and courage but these are not enough for a leader.

“We all know that there is vacuum in government occasioned by his disposition probably because of his old age or health condition that is why Nigerians are yearning for younger ones to lead this country”, he pointed out.

The leader of the groups, Bashir Gorau, pledged their support for Tambuwal’s presidential ambition, saying: “We are tired of waiting; we want you to declare your position now.”
