The Nigeria Vice President Yemi Osinbajo has urged young Nigerians to join politics to transform the society and make the difference.

The Vice president on Wednesday at a virtual forum where he interacted with Nigerian Fellows of the Mandela Washington Fellowship for Young African Leaders.


Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, who recalled his days in civil society engagements and later in politics as Lagos State Attorney-General, said: “It took public office for me to be able to get the scale of change that is required to make a difference.”


“Without public office, I would have remained a pressure group activist, I would have done some nice things, but I wouldn’t have been able to make the changes that my country required,” he added in a statement issued by his spokesman, Laolu Akande.


He said: “The way to transform society is largely dependent on the actions and decisions of those who occupy public offices. This is why young people in Nigeria must get involved in politics.


“You need to go the extra length if you are not already involved, get involved in politics while a lot can be achieved in civil society, Government still holds the ace in terms of capacity and resources to bring social goods to the largest numbers.


“The consummation of our great ideas to transform our societies ultimately will depend on ‘those politicians’ as we sometimes derisively describe them.


“African nations and especially our country, cannot afford to have its best minds and most committed social activists remain only in the civil space. No, we simply can’t afford it, you have to get involved in politics. You have to be in the position to make the difference on the scale that is required.
