Osinbajo is the first vice president in the history of Nigeria to exercise full presidential powers when the substantive president is outside the country.

Former President Olusegun Obasanjo was perpetually outside of Nigeria during his first term but never for once handed over to Atiku.

Even Yaradua who was rushed to Germany at the point of death never handed over power to Jonathan. When the supplementary budget of year 2009 was passed by the national assembly, it was parcelled to his sick bed for signature as Jonathan was not considered good enough to sign it.

Reverse is the case however under a president they want us to believe is a tyrant. It was the same osinbajo that signed the 2017 appropriation bill into law.

Last year, he signed about 5 bills into law and he has just signed another three. This is how to know a truly democratic leader.

Not one phantom hero who never allowed his vice to flourish.

I am not surprised that some Nigerian youths are passionate and interested in the caliber of people that delight in bribing them into accepting that the feature of their country be shared in the form of naira and dollar. Moses was criticize by yet the people he abandoned his family to rescue by God's divine intervention. But one thing I want to sink into their brain, that is, if you can't thank God for what you have, you should at least thank God for the evil you escaped both known and unknown. it takes someone who thoroughly know where Nigeria was heading to in 2015 to appreciate where we are today. as at the time oil was $70/$65, Jonathan could not handle it comfortably to the point that the likes of Iweala openly gave signal of impending doom ahead if nothing drastic was done to reverse the trend of things, and God eventually saved us by giving us a man who stood his ground and hold our economy firm even when our revenue slip down below $40pb yet all we hear our youth saying is that he is too old, he has no certificate, he has no certificate yet he defiled many negative forecaste about Nigeria by some internationally recognized bodies, one of the reasons why some other country respect Buhari today is because they don't believe Nigeria would have recover so quickly. Buhari may not be as perfect as we expect but before we choose someone over him, let ask ourselves what is it that the person has to offer, what has he done with the little opportunity he had previously, who are the people that will likely make up his cabinet etc. we can't afford to choose someone just because he is popular, if popularity is the yard stick, maybe we should consider the likes of Dino, FFK, Fayose etc. if you have traveled across the country, you will agree with me that these people are popular but there is more to presidency than being popular.
I will definitely not cast my vote against a man who has in his circle of "friends" the likes of Fashola, Oshomole, Tinubu, Ameachi Osibanjo, El Rufai, Kemi, Wamako, Ganduje etc. this are imperfect people that have done something perfect which can be remembered years after. if Buhari step aside today.

He is lucky that his principal visit London like going to rest room and the shameful event that happened when Former president Jonathan was prevented from acting during former president Yar adua absent . A law was made for any President to fully hand over to his vice any time he is travelling for health issues.
Osinbajo is lucky to have a old President that prefer ruling without considering his age and health.
Lucky the law was made after Johnathan experience.
lucky he is a SAN to understand his full rights .
