Vice President, Professor Yemi Osinbajo on Thursday declared that his aspiration was necessitated by his commitment to offer himself for service to the people and the nation.

Osinbajo said that among the presidential aspirants in the All Progressive Congress (APC), jostling to succeed President Muhammadu Buhari in 2023, he is the most experienced and prepared to be the next leader to address the myriad of challenges bedeviling the nation.

Osinbajo said this at the palace of Ewi of Ado-Ekiti, Oba Rufus Adejugbe in Ado-Ekiti, the Ekiti state capital on Thursday, in continuation of his consultation with stakeholders and APC delegates across the country ahead of the primaries.

” I have also worked under a very open and transparent President who has given me every opportunities to understand some of the issues and challenges that affect a country of a size and diversity like Nigeria.

” So I have all these opportunities and I most say that having had those opportunities and when the time for people to put themselves forward to run as president, I believe it will be irresponsible of me after seven years, not the race.

Going by his experience has acting president I think he is more capable to rule the country

You have made a great impact in the history of Nigeria vice president

No aspirants have the kind of presidential experience the VP has.

Exactly! No cap...

By now Tinubu should be packing his bags to go back to Iragbiji

But he helped Buhari create those problems

With his honesty and integrity, if he said so then he meant it. He is confidently telling Nigerians he is the man for the job. I believe the country will benefit immensely from this man's stewardship. He is a man to follow .

Osinbajo 8 years as the vice president is just like going to school to have knowledge of what to tackle later. He has experience

God1000:
It's nothing but the truth

Which truth? We have a moribund economy, insecurity, corruption, nothing is working and he is in charge of economy. What’s experience is he bringing to help next time? Experience in failure? Mtcheww!!!

I hope many of you ing this failure of a man are watching news? Tinubu has carried all northern delegates while you are busy clapping for the failure. You people don’t know anything. You will follow him to Ikenne when he given a heavy blow at the primary.

Osinbajo is the man we need

Mumu talk!

You are still in the government what's stops you from letting Buhari know some of these plans so as to make the nation better?


Some people think with their brain flipped upside down, unfortunately, Osibanjo is one of those.

Nexxxxt

100%

Well, he is, as claimed
My challenge is, will he be able to win war against the cabals and his envisaged, imposed VP?
If he can win that, he might have the craved impact

Ur papa

make dis guy go Siddon one place abeg!

Both Osi and Obi are not capable ....



Argue with your ancestors

They are still playing kalokalo on this one head. Your eyes will clear very soon when u realize you are just an orphan in the game of politics. The people that brought GEJ in know what they are doing. They are not ready to relinquish power to the south. They know GEJ is weak and have no ball. They will rally round to vote him knowing fully well the power is coming back to them after 4 years. Even Tinubu is in dilemma now. We need to divide this country as soon as possible.

Useless pastors

Na cameraman and packaging this one dey!


...another tinibu lite v2.0

osibanjo one of the best we have before he decides to dine with rogues of APC. Now they have taught him corruption and how to stay calm when the economy of this great country is taking a nose dive. Now let me tell you guy something the osibanjo of before 2015 is not the osibanjo of 2022 beware. No single person in this party of rogues APC can effect any change,vote them all out they wasted our 8years

Ajigijaga...

Less surprised, politicians with different gimmicks

I guess Atiku can say same. They all have something to say.
