The Tinubu Media Support Group (TMS), @TinubuMediaS, was opened in January following the declaration of the Lagos Governor, Bola Tinubu to contest the presidential ticket of the ruling All Progressive Congress (APC).

The profile of the group describes it as “Volunteer Media Support, BAT Fans, Promoters of BAT’23 project.”

So far, the group follows 455 Twitter users and has 954 followers, including the presidential spokesman.

President Muhammadu Buhari has refrained from disclosing his choice of successor, saying recently he would rather keep it to himself to prevent the individual from being “eliminated.”

When pressed in a recent television interview on whether he has any favourite in the APC to take over, he added: “No. I wouldn’t because he may be eliminated if I mention it. I better keep it secret”.
