If he is honest, that's when he doesn't even need to resign, please reason well.

If he really wants to clear his name and open himself up to a GENUINE investigation as he is singing he should resign or just stop making noise

This is a very commendable step and i applaud the Vice President. Truly, a clear conscience fears no accusation.

About time some people are made to realize that opposition is not madness. When you falsely accuse others simply because of politics, there must be consequences.

The ball is now in Timi Franks court. He must provide evidence in court showing how Osinbajo collected N90billion from FIRS, if not, he must face the music.

Na scam. The 1999 constitution does not give option of waiving immunity unless he shows some dignity and resigns

IamHeWrites:
Nigeria’s Vice President, Prof Yemi Osinbajo has vowed to waive his constitutional immunity to allow the law deal with peddlers of fake news about him on social media.

He was reacting to the series of allegations made against his office and person, especially the alleged FIRS N90bn funds, amidst rumoured rift between him and the President.

According to Osinbajo, who specifically mentioned Timi Frank, he said he had instructed the commencement of legal action against him over the publication he made against his office.

Na wash abeg. The constitution does not allow for waiver of immunity. If he is honest he should just resign

Nice one OP. Who Presidency epp??

A railway line that connects all the SE states is worth more than 10 SE presidents

I watched the video just now I am certain this man was not educated up to WAEC level. Chai what a disgrace to Nigeria

Federal Government now controls Lagos Inland Waterways but these lazy youths are storming House of Assembly over Ambode because they gave them 2k

What I find strange is that just three months ago the FG after winning the case in court signed an agreement to cooperate with Lagos State Government. Mamora then Head of NIWA was signatory on behalf of Federal Government but Amaechi now as supervising minister of NIWA is not interested in that agreement. Very interesting...

The federal government on Tuesday in Abuja, ordered the Lagos state government to as a matter of urgency hands off the waterways in the state, noting that it is the responsibilities of the Nigerian Inland Waterways Authority (NIWA) to oversee the sector.

Minister of Transportation, Mr. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi, who gave this order while featuring on a television programme monitored by THISDAY, revealed that Lagos state government did not have any right on the Inland waterways.
Amaechi said the Constitution was clear on the issue and that the law was clear on the ownership structure but, “when there is a vacuum it has to be filled so Lagos state decided to fill that.”
The minister stated that court had ruled that the federal government must go back to claim that responsibility since it’s theirs, adding that to do that, money can be provided from the budget to buy more vessels and provide inland water services in Lagos from Victoria Island for instance to Apapa which he said would help reduce gridlock in the area.

“The law is very clear about the responsibility of management of waterways, so why does Lagos state government want to take it from NIWA? For me, I don’t think that port construction at the inland waterways is the solution for now, we have done quite a lot, Onitsha, Baru, Lokoja River port are ready and still under utilised.

“What we should focus on is production, what we are doing at ministry of transport is to provide the logistics to move and transport your goods, so there is need to harp more on production, because as you produce your goods you create wealth. That is what China has been doing to move forward.”

He noted that there was also a need to do dredging on the waterways and see how many people would be encouraged to move their goods by water adding that this will create more employment.

He also stated that government needed to focus more on cargo tracking, stressing that he was embarrassed at the last maritime stakeholders meeting when almost all the stakeholders were hammering on tracking, “I will try to present this at the cabinet so that we can take cargo tracking off the ground,” Amaechi said.

Na so. Igbo amaka

I don't like it either. Too smooth and glossy yuck

Looking colourless and lifeless like one President like that according to Donald Trump

West Ham has come to park the bus...

candidtalk:
Look, forget the delusions you Igbos fool yourselves with. Yorubas are top Dog in Lagos. We don't brag because we don't suffer from inferiority complex like you Igbos. The greatest and most accomplished landlords in the Ikoyi you mentioned are Yorubas. You Igbos are propagandist without the personal honesty to submit yourselves to facts and reality.

I am ready, anytime, to show you how Yorubas are in full control of everything good and great about Lagos. Difference is that we just don't brag like you empty chest beaters and we remain secure enough in ourselves not to feel we must be online comparing dicks with others 24/7 just to be able to sleep well at night.

Tinubu would rather send your entire lineage back to your village in Osun state rather than allow one man like Coscharis or Obi Jackson to take his investment out of Lagos You are too low on the food-chain to get this fact.

candidtalk:
Suwegbe. Is that why the best from your region live in Lagos and have no intention of leaving?

Most of them lived in Ikoyi, VI while your ancestors were still farming cocoyam in oshogbo

efighter:
Yes, VP of Biafran Republic of Drugs and Crime

I know it's an idea that scares Tinubu to death

Misterdhee1:
Mumu. Everyone that stands up to you people's foolishness is a jambite. If your tax is so special to you, go back to your mud-filled village and develop it so you could start paying tax there..

Lagos does not have tap water or good roads and Fashola does not have one legacy. At least Tinubu with his agbero kingdom style of administration pretended to have a master plan.

Oya enough internet for you. Go and read your social studies textbook jambite

candidtalk:
Mad man, Lagos, by far, is the best place to live in Nigeria today. It is actually statistically safer than Many South African cities Nigerians run to yet are murdered brutally in. Yorubas, unlike Igbos, learn lessons from mistakes. If indeed Buhari is a mistake we supported to power then we will do something about correcting our error in future unlike you emotional folks who profess hate for Buhari/Fulani/the North and Islam yet queued behind Atiku who is a Fulani, Northerner and Moslem. If the North show us they wish to be treacherous then you will see how Yoruba rejection of the region will be deliberate and strategic. Unlike the noisemaking and confused antics of you lot. We are waiting for anything and anybody.

I'm sure you think life starts at Bariga and Lekki. You obviously never been outside Lagos before

Misterdhee1:
I don't have time to be answering a dumb question. If you don't know up to 10 legacies Fashola left behind, then your blindness is beyond redemption. Go back to your village and fix it first

You obviously don't pay tax. Maybe you be jambite sef. Okay name two

Adaibeku:
In regards to Deji Adeyanju's Twit this morning ,To tell you the truth this is obscure because i was in a Trance yesterday by 8:20pm at my office in Taraba When i saw southwest Elders and masquerades applauding Buhari with great joy For his 3rd term Victory ,I took it as one of my half-fact Trance ,But just this morning i saw Deji's Twit and i was so shocked by this Strange coincidence ,
°
Now i Ask What will Yorubas do if he still becomes a president in 2023 ?

NB :Compare Obasanjo to buhari at your perils

Misterdhee1:
Fashola's delivery in 8 years is far better than the combined 20 years performance of all the SE governors. If you can't see ho Lagos has been improving over the years, return to your village in Abia or wherever.

Name one Fashola legacy in 8 years. He has none!!! The only legacy he has is debt of N1 Trillion yet Lagos does not have tap water or good roads.

Abeg Osinbajo should carry his load by himself. He should either resign like a man or ensure the humiliation he is being fed.

He helped Tinubu put Lagos inside his pocket in 1999 and Lagos is one of the worst places to live in the world today.

He sat there quietly as Buhari destroyed this country, filled almost every possible position with Fulanis and said nothing while Shiites, ipob and people were getting slaughtered. Southerners cried throughout Buhari's first term. We warned him today would come but e no hear.

Brunicekid:
I disagreed with the part, "Fashola left the state barely of any good thing." I don't think that you are a lagosian... Fashola tried with creating Lawma, Lastma, cleaner Lagos... Why do you think Buhari gave Fashola three ministries to head in his first tenure?

Fashola left no legacy anybody can point to. Jakande has legacies we can see after almost 40 years. Tinubu and Fashola have none

Ambode would have been the best governor but he wasn't sharing money to touts and godfathers

The next VP after Osinbande is sacked

TempleHouse:
The problem of Lagos is the unfortunate influx of strangers and criminals who had invaded the city in pretext of looking for job.
Despite their ingenuity in trading business, they settle to bring all their people from their clans to engage in transport business without understanding the culture of Yoruba people to be courteous and respectful.
They are actually the main problem for the government.

But the badoo cultists that have taken thousands of lives are Yoruba. Is it migrants that have kept Lagos from providing pipe-borne water to the state. Is it migrants (taxpayers) that have kept Lagos from fixing roads, building a transport system or clearing the garbage all over Lagos?

SamNaijaboy:
Nobody wants to be in your Biafra chairman.
Itsekiri will definitely go with the Yorubas and likely Edos too. Urhobo and Isoko will remember what was done to them by Biafran forces in the mid-west and will rather dive enmass into the ocean than go with Biafra.
Same with Ijaw and Ikwerre and Akwa Ibom and all the people you are hoping will provide you sea access and oil.
There is always payback for being aggressive and attacking other people.
Some may even come along with us. We have hosted people for centuries peacefully in the SW and never attack nobody.
We have a live and let live policy about life

The people of the midwest (Edo-Delta) campaigned for decades and fought tooth and nail to leave your western region in 1963 and be on their own because of marginalization. See the landslide victory in their referendum

I hope this isn't all to help Tinubu win 2023...

Honestly Nnamdi Kanu owes Buhari a lot

His popularity and fame is all because Buhari the General without WAEC certificate still reasons like a Lance Corporal everything na force and fire

Which crime are they saying he committed now?

Nigeria will be humiliated if it tries that option. Diplomacy is the way

themanderon:
A sad tale of what a man can do to himself in His mad quest for relevance. I wonder if his children will be proud of this Judas.

If you look closely his sons look a bit embarrassed
