Veteran journalist and Spokesman for the Bola Tinubu Campaign Organisation, Bayo Onanuga, says he was the one who introduced Prof. Yemi Osinbajo to then Lagos State Governor, Bola Tinubu, in 1999, a decision he now regrets.
Onanuga said this in a statement on Monday in reaction to a PUNCH interview with a former National Secretary of the defunct Congress for Progressive Change, Buba Galadima, who had lambasted Osinbajo for daring to contest against Tinubu, his former boss.

In his article, Onanuga said Osinbajo was a lecturer in 1999 when Tinubu was putting his cabinet together in the presence of Otunba Gbenga Daniel (later Governor of Ogun State) and Dele Alake (later Lagos Commissioner for Information).

He recalled that Tinubu had written down the name of Bayo Oriola as the Commissioner for Justice and Attorney-General of Lagos State when he asked Tinubu to nominate his bosom friend, Osinbajo, instead.

“Looking back now, did I regret what I did in January 1999. Yes, I would say I have some regret, especially since my action hurt Bayo Oriola; and my apology to Oriola once again. I could not have foreseen today’s turn of events between Tinubu and Osinbajo, who I nominated to be justice commissioner,” Onanuga stated.

He said when he nominated Osinbajo and spoke highly of him, Tinubu was eager to meet him and asked him (Onanuga) to invite him over.

“After the meeting, I went to Osinbajo’s house in Ogudu to invite him to meet the new governor, Bola Tinubu. I remember entering the apartment from the kitchen. The wife was there when I delivered the message and left the house with him, later.

Wahala

Book of Lamentations will soon be opened!

Double wahala

Osibanjo is a traitor and so Buhari.

Serves Tinubu right, he was warned not to have joined forces with Buhari, a well known man for his nepotistic character.

The wailing is earthshaking..

Thought these people are adults but just look at them now crying uncontrollably like baby whales and elephants

Without prejudice to Jagaban, I think this matter is no longer an issue.

God makes a king, no matter where it goes, posterity cannot be ruled out

Too làte for this

Book of lamentation chapter one . Chapter two coming out 24 hours from now . The funny thing is that both the betrayer and betrayee will loss Tommorow

The man was pushing by northern. He have a minute to quit his wishful ambition.

Gravely regrets ,,, this is 2022 and not 1999

Nonsense

Wailing wailers

Cabals and RCCG actually.

He is only acting on pastor Adeboye prophecy that one of his member would be president during his life time.

I really love his personality but his emergency as president may cause alot of attacks on Christians communities and churches by those bastard extremists up north. Besides, alot of politicians see him as inferior, example is the one that called him "Ice cream seller". They will simply frustrate his government to the extent that military may take over as temporary solution.

Oh seriously, I never knew there's a prophecy like that. That will be interesting.

If he emerges as the President, he will undo many things. I partially believe that the VPs office handicaps him, he did a few things better when Buhari was away for months then. And I believe he might be the first one to undo cabal. He's not going to dance to any cabal decision. Well, that's if at all he gets there.

Osibanjo is a good man. We appreciate Tinibu for giving us such a wonderful leader, we shall vote for him.

Even the guy that introduced Judas to Jesus regretted it also. But we all know how Judas ended.

Same way Marabouts prophesized for Atiku Abubakar that he will be President, that was why Atiku wanted to overthrow his boss Olusegun Obasanjo. Now this is the 5th time Atiku is contesting. Let's see how many times Judas Osinbajo will contest before prophesy comes to pass. We all know how Atiku's betrayal of Obasanjo ended, let's see how Osinbajo betrayal of Tinubu will end.

This man needs to be calming down joor... Tinubu cannot punish we Nigerians with buhari and expect to be rewarded with presidency.... Karma on the beat..


Meanwhile do you know that tinubu never wanted osibanjo to be VP? And that's the problem between him and buhari?

Nobody should take political stuff personal. It is called politics for a reason. As a politician, u should expect the worst betrayal and learn to live with it.

This just go to show that personal interest supercedes the state interest in this looters assembly

Now we know how they choose our leaders, the APC is a disgrace to humanity.

I don’t understand these people. Do they expect everyone to lick Tinubu balls like they do in Lagos
