It Will Be Disservice To Nigerians If I Fail To Contest Presidency - Osinbajo by OmoOgunOriginal(f): 6:25am On Apr 26, 2022
The Vice President Prof Yemi Osinbajo, has declared it would be an injustice for Nigerians if he fail to contest the 2023 Presidential election in view of his vast experience in the last seven years in office.

Penpushing reports that, Osinbajo made this known on Monday during his visit the Governor of Ondo State, Rotimi Akeredolu in his office in Akure, the state capital, stressing that it is a special privilege to serve.

“I think It will be a betrayal to our country, to our nation, this is a nation that many people died for, people died for this country, if I, with all that has been given to me by the grace of God, retire quietly either to Lagos or Ikenne and go and be writing my memoirs.

“It will be a great injustice to our country, that is why I throw my hat in the ring and ensure I make the best case for the position of President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria,” Osinbajo said.


“It is such a special privilege to be called to serve, it is a very special privilege to serve either as exco, house of assembly, even as NWC member. I am sure that everybody knows that I have formally declared my intention to run as president of the Federal Republic of Nigeria’, he stated.

“I did so on Monday, April 11th, 2022 and I did so because, first of all there is nobody that can be anything God does not decide that he would be, only God can make a person president, vice president, governor, anything whatsoever’, Osinbajo added.

“So, I believe the hand of God must be on anything we are doing, but I declared my intention based on first, the fact that I have served, again by the sheer grace of God, I have served for seven years and some months’, he said.

“President Muhammadu Buhari, just out of his open-mindedness and his own generosity ensured that I was given very serious responsibilities as vice president and I also acted as president’, Osinbajo added.

” In those capacities, I got to know so many things that most people will never come across, even people in government will never come across and I gained a lot of experience on that account’, he said.

“Many times the President, when he was away, said pointedly to me that look, I don’t want to feter your discretion in any way, as acting president, you are president, just make sure you are fair and just, don’t refer anything to me, don’t ask me any questions, just do whatever you need to do’, Osinbajo stated.

Penpushing also reports that, the vice president commended President Muhammadu Buhari’s open-mindedness in delegating to him serious tasks that had aided his experience, noting that it was God that put people in power, emphasizing that it would be a betrayal of his country for him to retire with all his exposure in government.

Not that I welcome your aspiration but it seems Your aspiration makes Tinubu and his followers to go insane which makes me a very happy person when I see them being frustrated and unhappy. Go on sir.

Disservice to your pocket. Using too much God God, like say him dey work for God. As you second chaired in the worst regime so far since inception of this country you think we will see you as a savior or what.

Both you and Asiwaju are birds of same feather just that your version is recent.
