Vice President Yemi Osinbajo yesterday apologised as his security aides beat up a photojournalist with the Vanguard Newspapers, attached to the State House, Abayomi Adeshida. This happened at the State House Banquet Hall during the opening of the Nigeria Diaspora Investment Summit organised by the Nigerians in Diaspora Commission chaired by Abike Dabiri-Erewa.

This was two days after 35 aides of Osinbajo were reportedly sacked by President Muhammadu Buhari.

Osinbajo’s spokesman, Laolu Akande, in a tweet, said the incident was “regretted”, but had been resolved “and I’ve apologised to him for any embarrassment caused.” Adeshida had alleged that he was taking shots of the vice president taking a tour of the exhibition stands at the event when five personnel of the Department of State Security pounced on him. He said Osinbajo was, at that moment, being presented a copy of magazine as souvenir at a particular stand.

Adeshida, who said he was not told what he did wrong, alleged that the security details hit and dragged him on the floor. Adeshida, who said his camera was damaged, added: “I was shocked when these DSS men started beating me for no apparent reason. They tore my Presidential Villa accreditation tag on the shirt and dragged me on the floor while hitting me and kicking me.”

Osinbanjo, just gave bubu another reasons to sack more of his aides again..

A dictator remains a dictator.

Vanguard must have irked him and this was a perfect opportunity for a payback..

Keep it sir. your days are numbered. They don't even trust you with power anymore.

Aboki been fooling others since day one.

And plaindealer was masturbating all over yesterday saying it was a lie.

If APC zombies don't kill their leaders with lies, their leaders Will

Osibanjo is having many problem this days.
I pray he survive.

At least he had the decency to do so

After denying the incident & now, they turn back to render hypocritical apology.
Lie lie pipu

But zonBs were claiming it was a lie yesterday with multiple reports? So if he wasn't beaten up why is d VP apologising?

Okay

And some Zombies were here saying it's fake news

All those claiming it was false can now see that it really did happen.

IMO, apology without compensation is null and void

When u want to kill a dog. U tag it a name.

What osibanjo aids has done is minute to the rape, harassment, man handling and injustice buhari aids and his cohorts has done in all comers.

It's well

Atleast he's man enough to apologise. Welcome development

If these types of petty smear campaign online and stupid attacks on the VP is part of PDP scheming to return to power, then PDP are the dumbest opposition party in the world. They should just forget about 2023. If and when APC loses in 2023, it will be another new party taking over, not PDP. Instead of bringing important issues that APC is failing on that is affecting millions of Nigerians daily, like massive insecurity, bad economic policies, increasing institutionalized human rights violations, media suppression and prohibition of free speech, political bullying and persecution, the crippling of SMEs with over taxation etc, they are busy propagating propaganda against Osinbajo, that his aides are no longer allowed to poo inside Aso Rock Villa, they now poo outside, that Osinbajo now wears pink socks instead of blue, senseless matters that have no bearing on the average voter's mind. Mtshewwwww!

No body was sacked. It's the jobless PDP members who are behind the silly news.

And some people argued about it here that nothing of such happened.

Good move VP but DAT guy no go forget d beating.

More aides to go

Inhumane people

Someone is reported to have 80 aides and 35 out of the 80 were sacked, how is that news? I mean he has 45 left, which is more than enough for any VP or president. PdP are just groping in the dark, jumping on every nonsense and broadcasting stale gossips and things that don't have any value to majority of people, except being rotten food for their blind zombie supporters to chew on and gloat over nothing. PDP are jokers abeg. This is not how to play opposition politics.

Smh. Do dictators apologise

Trust any politician at your own peril

Anytime lads like plaindealer screams 'fake news', It will even help us authenticate the news even more.
