RACE TO 2015: Why I chose Prof. Osinbajo as my running mate – Buhari RACE TO 2015: Why I chose Prof. Osinbajo as my running mate – BuhariBy TODAY on December 18, 2014 @ 1:06 am@todayngr TweetPin It The presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (rtd), on Wednesday said his running mate, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, emerged through a meticulous process. According to him, the major reason he chose Osinbajo was becasue of his ‘unimpeccable integrity,’ adding that together with him, they’ll rescue Nigeria. Buhari stated this while presenting Osinbajo to Nigerians at the National Secretariat of the party in Abuja. He added that his running mate is a “friend of the masses.’’ “The challenging process of rescuing our country and changing Nigeria for good has commenced. One of the first decisions that I have to make is the choice of the vice-presidential candidate and my running mate. “The method employed in this choice was quite meticulous but yet rigorous. It involved the establishment of objective criteria, broad consultations with party leaders and a few opinion leaders outside the party and interactions with a number of nominees,” Buhari said. “To assist me in this great task of securing Nigeria’s future, I have chosen a man of unimpeachable integrity, an excellent professional, a man of faith, a devoted family man and a role model to our fellow countrymen and women. He is a professor of law and a Senior Advocate of Nigeria. “An alumnus of the University of Lagos and the London School of Economics. He is a prodigious author who has to his credit several books on civil procedure in Nigerian superior courts. “The vice-presidential candidate is a friend of the less privileged, compassionate and zealous in service. A man of uncommon humility, a loyal, dependable and selfless patriot. “Ladies and Gentlemen, I present Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, who by the grace of God and the vote of Nigerians will be the next Vice-President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria,” Buhari added. Buhari also thanked Nigerians for their goodwill messages since he emerged the party’s presidential candidate, saying, “I wish to thank all Nigerians and friends of Nigeria who have continued to send messages of goodwill and congratulations to me and the party since my election as the presidential flag bearer of the All Progressives Congress (APC). “The huge outpouring of support and acceptance has been a great encouragement to me and hardened my resolve to lead the process of rebuilding a New Nigeria and securing our future. “In my acceptance speech, I pledged to run an efficient government, fight corruption and indiscipline in our national life. I promised to end the current regime of fear and uncertainty in our country and place priority on national security. “I also pledged to rebuild our battered economy and reduce poverty by deliberate policies to create jobs.

I'm just too happy over the emergence of Osinbajo. It's high time we said NO to a clueless, inactive and ceremonial VP whose official duty is performed by a semi-literate called 'First Lady'.

i'm happy too. You know God has a way of doing things- those ways that are are beyond our knowledge. no one saw osinbajo coming, but here we're with him. He's so clean that the pdp has nothing bad to tag on him. I was for amaechi, but his emergence is coming to me as the right choice already.

PDPians are presently bereft of propagandas against Osinbajo. They were already set to finish Tinubu, Fashola, Amaechi or Oshiomole, but they were really disappointed!

Buhari was helpless in the selection of his VP. Left to Buhari, Osibanjo is a big no. And herein lies the beginning of the end of APC.

Osibanjo is a big minus already for APC , so why waste bullets on a dead enemy.

Keep consoling yourself. I'd advise you to visit thenation and see for yourself. Your Leaders are panicking, while you're here consoling yourself.

it is none of ur business who buhari picks. the rule says ; if you dont get what you like, you end up liking what you got.


all we know now is that buhari picked osinbajo as his running mate, and not his party.

we beat them to it; we literally took the game to them. pdp will forever remember Tinubu as the only individual that rattled them and caused 'political tectonism' in their fold after 16 years of their un-challenged might.
