STATEHOUSE PRESS STATEMENT

WE ALL NEED TO ACT FAST ON ECONOMY, ASUU STRIKE, OSINBAJO TELLS VISITING APC GOVERNORS

Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, SAN, received APC Governors today in his office at the Presidential Villa on a felicitation visit as he recovers from the surgery done last month.

While welcoming the Governors, Prof. Osinbajo expressed his appreciation for the visit and the good wishes.

The VP also commended the expertise of Nigerian doctors, and the availability of cutting edge medical facilities existing in the country. But he regretted that doctors are restrained by regulations to advertise and as a result many people are unawares of the level of quality medical services available locally.

During the brief interaction that followed at the meeting, important national issues were also raised especially regarding the economy and the ASUU strike.

The Vice President and the Governors then agreed to engage these and other pressing issues further with a view to bringing urgent resolution for the benefit of the Nigerian people.

According to the Vice President "we all need to work together on this critical issues. We need to think through things, and we need to do it fast."

These issues need be resolved as soon as possible fast. I really want Prof Osinbajo to handle the negotiations.

.

For 7 years, Osinbajo has been a motivational speaker.

Nigeria's VP office must be the world's most useless office.

Something has to be done at the NEC; governors and the VP should find a solution to these things

I know from the onset that the meeting with progressive governors is for the betterment and the progress of our dear nation, honestly speaking Osinbajo always wanting a good things happen to Nigerians

NEC need to play their part, this is taking like forever...the committee set up by Mr President are looking unreliable

Let Osinbajo take the lead on negotiation with the ASUU, i believe something tangible and meaningful will come out of it.
