Now I can confidently say GEJ till 2019. What a wrong strategy? Honestly myself would have helped APC map out dia strategy.

A great strategy is obviously not very obvious.

Yemi Osinbajo is the senior partner at SimmonsCooper Partners. Yemi is a professor of law and a former attorney-general of Lagos State and Commissioner for Justice. He is also a senior advocate of Nigeria (SAN). Yemi was educated at the University of Lagos, Nigeria (LLB, 1978) and the London School of Economics (LLM, 1980). He was admitted to practice before the Supreme Court of Nigeria in 1979. He has authored several books on civil procedure in Nigerian superior courts, rules of evidence and justice reform.

Yemi has 31 years of litigation experience including significant trial and appellate work. Yemi supervises the commercial litigation group at SimmonsCooper Partners (SCP). Yemi is regarded as one of the finest advocates in Nigeria. Yemi has conducted very important constitutional and precedential cases before the Nigerian Supreme Court. Some of these include fiscal disputes between the federating units and the federal government; disputes regarding the ownership and control of oil and gas resources; town and physical planning disputes between the federating units and the federal government; an international territorial jurisdictional dispute in the West African sub-regional court; shareholder disputes involving a multinational, private investors and state-owned investment corporations and energy disputes arising from multinational participation in power projects in Nigeria. In other cases, Yemi has advised and represented clients in a broad range of commercial and corporate issues including securities litigation, investments and divestments, joint ventures, oil block acquisitions, product liability, fiduciary duties of directors, intellectual property, and corporate valuations. He is also involved in statutory and regulatory appraisal representation before the legislature and federal and state agencies.

While in public office as attorney general, Yemi is credited with undertaking far-reaching significant judicial reform in Lagos State, addressing critical areas as judges’ recruitment, remuneration, training and discipline. In addition, he addressed access to justice for the poor by establishing appropriate institutions in the Office of the Public Defender (OPD) and the Citizens Mediation Centre (CMC). In honour of his contributions to legal reform and the development of law in Nigeria, a compendium of essays on Nigerian constitutional law was compiled. The authors of these essays were senior lawyers and law professors with a foreword provided by a past chief justice of Nigeria.

Yemi is a member of the International Bar Association and the British Institute of International and Comparative Law and has served in the Nigerian Body of Benchers and the Council for Legal Education of Nigeria. He is currently an independent director of CitiBank Nigeria and an ethics adviser to the board of the Africa Development Bank. He has also served in various capacities within the United Nations Organisation. Yemi speaks frequently at several commercial litigation events locally and internationally. He is actively involved in the pursuit of legal education reform in Nigeria.

APC members are not about self ego,they are bout working together for the Interest of Nigerians.they're changed men and women.

THE CHANGE IS COMING 2015
ITS OVER FOR THE CORRUPT

Tinubu knows that Buhari will eventually end up like that slowpoke yar Adua and his game plan is for power to return to the south west. A very smart move but amaechi is too blind insulting Mr president to see tinubu calculation and he has wasted rivers state future generation money on APC... He will definitely regret it in no distance time.

When I see Nigerians giving APC mass support in the hope that they have come to rescue Nigeria from corruption, I laugh.

General Buhari you knew in 1983 is not the same Buhari you know in 2014.

1. Buhari was a military head of state in 1983 and had absolute power to dictate things and fight corruption as he wants with the help of Idiagbon his ADC.

Now, Buhari is coming as a democatically elected president (if at all he wins), which means before he can act or fight or prosecute any corrupt politician (past and present), he must get senate and reps approval and then they must pass through judiciary to finalise the prosecution, and of course this take ages to end...which means, no hope for immediate fight against corruption as all Nigerians anticipate if Buhari wins.

2. 80% of past thieves and corrupt politicians in Nigeria have all decamped to APC just because Goodluck is not dancing to their evil beats...and now they have all become saints.

OBJ, Tinubu, Atiku, Rochas, Amaechi, just name them are now APC chieftains and supporters just to ensure Goodluck fails, and now how do u Nigerians expect Buhari to act if he wins when he is being surrounded corrupt politicians now wearing a new party uniform- APC

3. If Buhari wins next year, he will act based on his party road map...and of course APC is a gathering of thieves just like PDP, so what's the difference and the noise of change all about

OBJ the most corrupt man in Nigeria is now acting like a saint and Nigerians are listening to him instead of stoning him to death, sighs

Nigerians take it or leave it, all these Goodluck must go cry and campaign is a tribalistic/religious war!

Buhari will fail Nigerians more than Goodluck failed Nigerians if he wins, but where it hurts me is that Nigerians won't cry and condemn him as much as they condemned Goodluck now just because Buhari is from a majority tribe and a religious background that believe in mob system and backup their religious brethren no matter how bad he/she is.

Meanwhile, if Buhari wins come 2015, he will not do anything to end Boko Haram, rather Boko Haram will happily drop their arms because their own person has finally climbed the thrown, and then, MEND will rise up again!

There's trouble ahead, Nigerians be careful and pray.

We Nigerians would have just be calm and allowed Goodluck to do his best and let all see that he failed on his own and then next year all Nigerians vote their choice again...but not the radical, tribalistic and religious way we are doing it, we want to cause more trouble for Nigeria.

APC thank you for rendering Amaechi politically irrelevant, by using and dumping him.

This is not a good choice abeg.

At least 2 things are wrong here

1, No SS or SE on the ticket. These 2 regions are known for solidarity (our son) votes. SW don't need their son on ticket to vote for anyone.

2, APC need someone with already established visibility. Osinbajo doesn't satisfy this.

Amaechi or Oshiomole or even Rochas would have been better choice.

I beg to differ bro. That's APC 's joker. It's not all about visibility/popularity. They bring in master of an industry and who has impeccable character/personality. Osibanjo has a selling point and just a matter of time that people buy into it. Check out Fashola

It will interest you to know that before the previous election when GMB picked Pastor tunde bakare, he has always rooted for some1 from the SE but that didn't reflect in the outcome of the election.

Even the Great Ojukwu couldn't muster more than 155000 votes from his brethen when he contested for President. so where is the solidarity (our son) votes

At the Lauching of 'Opon Imo' in Osun State. My elder brother,who is a geology graduate of FUTA ran to him, showed him his cv, persuading for an employment opportunity.

Few months later, My Brother received a surprising call from Prof. Osibanjo, asking him to come down to Lagos, to join one of his firms. He employed my brother, not minding the fact that he was completely a stranger, a son of nobody.

As far as i know, he is a good man,indeed.

It's obvious they are trying to counter the Islamist tag that buhari has somewhat failed to shed

Didn't he also field pastor tunde bakare during the last election

These people just won't learn.. shior

Oh how has the mighty fallen, the chairman of governors forum, the man in charge of Nigerias second biggest state treasury after lagos, could not foster political cohesion to get a VP slot from APC despite all the billions of rivers state funds wasted on APC campaigns and sponsorship? Gov. Amaechi should be openly flogged for being such a failure.

Hey APC has made huge err, who is yemi osibanjo? that unpopular guy who is not known beyond the boundaries of Lagos state? what happened to osho baba or even this rivers man that has rubbished himself fighting everybody including his own brothers with d aim of getting the VP position? amadioha Sorry AMAECHI? Even though Fashola or Oshomole would have been the best but for some political matrices that failed to suite them, Its important most times to look before we leap o.
The choice of Osinbajo is simple: Unlike Amaechi, Fashola or Osho baba, who are experienced politicians/governors, Osinbajo is a political rookie.
Thus, it would be very easy for Tinubu and GMB to sleep at night knowing that the Prof. won't upstage the General.
