Vice President Yemi Osinbajo has denied seeking President Muhammadu Buhari’s permission to dump the All Progressives Congress, APC, over the party’s Muslim-Muslim presidential ticket.


Osinbajo said a widely circulated memorandum suggesting he asked Buhari for permission to leave APC was not from him.

The memorandum, dated June 24, 2022 with reference number SH/VP/605/2./0 and titled ‘Permission to resign from APC,’ listed family pressure and other reasons for the alleged decision.

Reacting, Osinbajo, through his spokesman, Laolu Akande, described the memorandum as fake.

Akande said Osinbajo would never author such a memo full of errors.

“Where do you people even get these things from? Who gave it to you? Anyways, for the avoidance of doubt, the memo is fake. VP didn’t write any such thing,” he told journalists.


Recall that Osinbajo came third during the APC presidential primaries in Abuja.

Prior to the presidential primaries, the Vice President was accused of betraying Bola Tinubu, the eventual winner of election.

Tinubu is believed to be the political godfather of Osinbajo, hence the Vice President was queried for contesting against him.

However, Tinubu settled for a Northern Muslim, Kashim Shettima as his running mate following his emergence as APC presidential candidate.

Fahdiga:
Osinbajo should dump the satanic party.

candidtalk:
If he will then it will be of his own accord and not you IPObians creating fake news and propaganda to try and force his hand.

By the way, if Osinbajo leaves APC where will he go? PDP full of treacherous snakes? NNPP full of Northern supremacists or Labour that is full of losers and no-hopers?

Why has Ambode not decamped after all this time? Why has Aregbe not left APC? You IPOBians will never understand politics as Yorubas naturally can.

Even if he doesn't dump the APC, his conscience is telling him the truth. He can't be a party to injustice. And that's simply because power is transient

Fahdiga:
Trashy post.

Hmm. Funny how Nigerians reason hypocritically, there have always been christian christian gubernatorial tickets over the years in SE, SW, SS and numerous Muslim muslim tickets in the north, there haven't been uproar about them over the years, but once it's BAT, their nightmare, they begin ranting up and down. Same faith candidates is bad truly but hey, the hypocrisy is too much. Nigerians are too irrational when thinking and most of una don't even know how to analyse situations critically, just an headline to sway ur thoughts and and BOOM, delusion sets in. I've collected my 30k o and I've spent it, mofos

Osinbajo will gain more supporters if this becomes Truth.

Meanwhile look at written statement from shetima audio recording with ibukunle Amosun.
