SUPPORTERS of Vice President Yemi Osinbajo (SAN), under the aegis of Osinbajo Grassroots Organisation on Sunday urged him to contest for the presidency come 2023.

They described Osinbajo as “a neutraliser and stabiliser”, who had provided the backbone for the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd).

Members of the group said this during the second edition of Osinbajo’s Day which was held in Abuja with the theme: “Run, Osinbajo run: The future beckons, in Abuja.”

Among them were the Director-General, Advocacy for Good Governance, Hussain Coomassie and a retired veteran journalist, Akin Makanjuola.

Some of them carried placards with inscriptions such as ‘In Osinbajo, we see a loyal leader’, ‘2023: Let Osinbajo lead’, ‘Nigerians love Osinbajo’, ‘Great Nigeria, Great Nation, Great Osinbajo’, ‘Thank you, Buhari for giving us Osinbajo’ and ‘Osinbajo: The future beckons.’

The Convener of OGO, Funsho Ojo, in his speech titled: “Unhappy is the Land that has no heroes”, said the VP has been adopted as their role model.

He said, “What is this project? The project is the celebration of a man we have adopted as our role model, a man we are all proud of, a man in whose hand, as young men and women, we can entrust our future. It is for this reason and many more that we have chosen, at personal sacrifice, to build a movement around him.

“We are appealing to Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo to throw his hat into the ring and take up higher responsibility having worked diligently with the President and with great results to show.

If someone m, if given a chance will make the country great, his acting days is something to ponder and ask, for him to have performed excellently, if given a chance, he will be exceptional and make Nigeria great.

This is another self consolation piece right?

Because even the Buhari/Osibanjo regime has never denied that they have failed. And here you are angling for a member (leader) of a failed Government.

Your first response will be to tell us how the office of the VP is powerless; well he has the God-given power and commission (as a pastor) to speak truth to power even to his own detriment. Except his hands are not as clean as you projected.

Let’s pretend he is too busy to see/hear about the killings in Southern Kaduna and Plateau states. Is he also blind to the ongoing persecution of political dissidents?

You go around Nairaland hyping this man and to what end. Are you simply satisfied with having anyone one there as long as he Is of the same tribe as you?

Ask yourself this honest question: Is Osibanjo the best we as a nation can produce (especially when we consider the fact that he is a member of what is sure to be the worst government on record).

Are you aware that there is an ongoing genocide in the north and middle belt and even in parts of yorubaland all in a bid to make sure the Fulani create a new nation and wipe off indigenous tribes?

At what point will you be honest to yourself and allow the simple principles of fairness, equity and truth to guide your decisions?

Maybe never.

Osibanjo will never President, I hope you are doing this for some financial gain and getting paid upfront; because this will be a big blow if the only basis for this is your tribal affiliation.

Think!

chatinent:
I wonder how sb who was silent on matters affecting everyone would just change when given the mantle of leadership. Or are the people that would be there not going to be the same people there?

The way Nigeria thinks.

Racoon:
I have been saying the same thing over the years.VP Osinbajo is a monumental disgrace to the christain faith as far as this government is concerned.

His conspiratorial silence in the midst of all the injustices and illegalities perpetuated by the tyrannical and evil Buhari regime especially the actively ongoing genocide and annihilation of christain-ravage middle belt & Southern Nigeria are really nauseating. Imagine if Osinbajo were Buhari and vice versa in this hopeless govt?

U mean same vp that handled our economy ? And gave a worse economy ?

I am also joining the group to pls beg Osinbajo to go for president come 2023 because he has revive our nation

Oshibajo would be a good leader in a sane country but not in an insane country like Nigeria where everything works by reverse...
Where all. a policy that is working perfectly in some sane country doesn't work here...
Interestingly, If he wants to pick any vice president, it will.be from. the north....make them no. go kill. am oh...Hausa -.Fulani people can do anything to grab power...and after they have grabbed the power, there is little or no capacity to. perform. their statutory function...

Oshibajo, it is a good thing to try your luck....it.is better to try than not.to.try at all...but I don't think this Buhari I know, we leave his Fulani Bloda to support Yoruba candidacy for president...he made one derogatory comment, and this may be indirectly speaking about Oshibajo when he said, "/I don't think I can support anyone that cant delivers win results for APC in his local government area...

There is no. crime in trying....but the election is not a do-or-die affair...if you win, fine, and if you lose, you have served your fatherland for 8 years...
paid

I thought we've all agreed that an Igbo man should be the next president

People clamouring for a failure to be the president of this country, the youth indeed is the problems of this country.

The same VP Osinbajo that is part of the utter failure of the Buhari-Osinbajo(including the brazen impunity, lawlessness, brigandage, institutionalized or executive corruption seen) under the APC-led government or another Osinbajo? He is simply a failure like his principal only that he has good academic pedigree.

Osibanjo is part of this failed government so he won't be given the mantle of leadership in 2023

Never!

Fulani should never smell presidency again but this is Nigeria

The quoted post below also has a point you may need to reflect on if common sense is your thing.

What is your business....did he stop. you to campaign for your own preferred presidential. candidate? Nyamiri people. are always bittered about everything outside their territory...I'm sure if it is Obi Peter and Atiku, you will. keep mute

Is it a crime? to attempt? Even though the chances of him winning are so low but there is no crime in trying...
But.meanwhile, Buhari administration is different from. Oshibajo administration...

Please my Vice President Osinbajo come and be our president in 2023, I'm very sure you will be the best president ever.

For those of you who are speaking against Osinbajo, its either you are not in Nigeria or the more you look, the less you see. This is someone that an attempt was made to silence. Yes he is in the government but can't you see that he has been sidelined?::: Attempt was made to kill him because he doesn't agree with them. He shines when ever given little opportunity and they can't afford to watch him shine, hence the sidelining. He is an insider of the Aso rock and he knows their game. He is a neutral man and stands a better chance to beat them at their game from the inside. You don't expect him to show himself unecessarily when e easy to silence. Its a game of slow and steady. By the way, Jonathan as VP was also silent. Look well please.

Udele and bull story.

No politician is a neutral man, leave that face he puts up for the court of public pity! He is like them, 24/7!

Osinbajo has been solution ti many problems in this country which qualifies him to be the next president. Our economy would have be worsen than this, if not the wisdom of Osinbajo.
His leadership styles is highly appreciative , he relates with everyone as one family irrespective of your tribe or religion . 2023, Osinbajo will make the best presidential candidate.

Na so sai baba take start

Rubbish

Osinbajo is too timid to be a politician, not assertive and very obvious that he is a YES MAN to the people holding the nation by the jugular.

Inasmuch as I will advise him to run, he'd rather run back to his chamber to continue his legal profession,where his motivational speeches and condolence messages will be better appreciated

EVEN THE BMF-BOKOISWA IS AWARE THAT ONLY Osinbajo IS EDUCATED AND EXPERIENCED ENOUGH TO COME AFTER THEM TO CORRECT AND CLEAR THE MESS THEY'RE LEAVING BEHIND.

THE LORD WILL PROVIDE HIMSELF A LAMB FOR SACRIFICE.

The quoted posts below also have some points you may need to reflect on if common sense is your thing.

Abeg shut up. We ar all tired of you Igbos and how you can never view anything without the hateful, ethnocentric and unobjective outlook you all appear to be born with.

Are you all from Mars, and ignorant of the reality of our nation, to justify how you always deliberately attach Buhari's failure to Osinbajo?

What can the VP do or contribute in Nigeria that is not at the pleasure of the powerful and almighty office of the President?

Are you blind to miss how even members of the inner circle of Buhari, like Malami, openly disregard and disrespect Osinbajo in confirmation his role is that of 'spare tyre' to the President?

You guys are jokers. You will see and know the truth yet be saying the opposite because of ethno-religious hate of others.

The VP will make a fine President. He is intelligent and hardworking, I have no doubt about him at all and that's evident from his 51days as acting president.

Sowore is better than pdp and apc put together.

The quality of president needed stated by ibb, he described osibanjo. Read it again.

Tinubu people campaigners has reached him also.

juman:
Sowore is better than pdp and apc put together.

Sowore is conman and an unprincipled charlatan.

No bigger proof of this than how most Nigerians ignore his antics today except hardcore haters of government who will always support anyone, even a serial killer, they percieve an enemy or critic of the FG.
