ON January 8, 2018, Vanguard published a story titled, “Fuel Scarcity: Nigerians commend Osinbajo for selfless leadership”. It was one of many headlines that commended the number two citizen of Nigeria for his service to the people as a politician. Osinbajo is a man who has a track record for his dedication, perseverance, courage and for achieving excellence in his work as a public servant, in the church as a pastor or at home as a husband and father. He is a man who knows how to find a balance despite the responsibilities on his shoulders. Not many believe that you can succeed as a pastor and public servant at the same time, but Vice President Professor Yemi Osinbajo is re-defining the thought of many Nigerians. Despite his busy schedule as Vice President, he has never forsaken the gathering of the brethren even while helping to attract successes to efforts by the government of President Muhammadu Buhari to re-invent Nigeria on many fronts. In addition to assisting in putting the national economy on track for fast recovery as head of the Economic Team, Osinbajo has won the heart of the Nigerian youths for the government through a well-designed Social Intervention Programme, SIP, comprising the N-Power, GEEP Market Moni, Home Grown School Feeding initiative and the Conditional Cash Transfer for the unemployed in the country. He has been the bridge through which the South-South zone of the federation re-connected with the Buhari government, a development, which assisted in mitigating tension in the zone. The latest exploits by the Vice President in bringing the good agenda of the Buhari government to fulfillment came through his unrelenting efforts to expose corruption perpetrated under the past government of former President Goodluck Jonathan. Osinbajo has been doing that because the war against corruption is one of the major planks of the policy thrust by the present government to re-invent Nigeria. His background as an established Pastor in the Redeemed Christians Church of God, RCCG, offers an insight on why he seems to be neck-deep in the task by the Cabinet to fight corruption. As a pastor, he is ordained to stay off any acts of corruption, set examples on how not to be corrupt, speak against corruption and its incubus as well as expose corruption even when in an embryonic stage. Vice President Osinbajo, when honking on acts of corruption, dwells on facts and figures available to the Cabinet. He is committed to assisting Nigeria stave off the possible return of the menace with every successive government. For effectively bridging the role of a pastor and a politician, Osinbajo deserves applause. A week ago, the Vice President stepped on toes when he featured in the latest episode of the The Platform, organised by the Covenant Christian Centre in Lagos, alleging that three persons stole $3 billion (N1 trillion) in the Jonathan administration. Not too long ago, he had alleged that the Jonathan administration shared the sum of N150 billion just two weeks to the 2015 elections, whereas, the same government spent just a paltry N14 billion on agriculture in 2014; N15 billion on transportation and only N153 billion on infrastructure in three years. Osinbajo, perhaps, has more privileged information on monumental kind of mindless corruption which the Jonathan government allowed in its six years tenure. Although Nigerians are aware that the government ran by Jonathan knew nothing about frugality and parsimony on financial matters, with evidence of alleged infamies against his government on corruption still in the public domain, Jonathan, who had before now remained taciturn and reclusive, swallowing all guilt about his failure, is now finding the courage to make feeble kicks. Last week, Jonathan, likely prodded by jobless aides who still leech on him, resolved to take his brittle grievance to the RCCG Shepard, Pastor Enoch Adejare Adeboye, asking him to call the Vice President to order for “lying” against him. Incredible! The question is: will Jonathan, whose government still has questions to answer on financial matters ever accuse anyone of lying against him? From observation, Jonathan who had long owned up to some grave mistakes while his regime lasted, would never have dreamt of approaching Pastor Adeboye to call the Vice President to order for telling the truth against him. The truth is; Jonathan’s former Social Media aide, Reno Omokri, prodded his latest move to approach the RCCG for succour. The tweets by Omokri on the issue are enough evidence to show that he, indeed, prodded the reaction by Jonathan. Before now, Reno Omokri has been crying more than the bereaved since Jonathan conceded victory to President Buhari in the 2015 Presidential election. Reno Omokri since then has never seen anything good in the succeeding administration of President Buhari. He had whipped sentiments sufficient to rebrand and remold Jonathan out of power and had consistently failed. Remo Omokri acts as if a grand plan was afoot for Jonathan to return to power in 2019. Jonathan and members of that administration are lucky that they are Nigerians. In other climes, Presidents and Prime Ministers who merely accepted bribes and kickbacks are either in the dock today or behind bars. This year alone, the world has witnessed how Presidents and Prime Ministers of different countries were arraigned in court on allegation of corruption; not borderring on looting the Nigerian style, but on account of carelessness in handling bribery cases. Former South-African President, Jacob Zuma and Mauritius President, Ameenah Gurib-Fakim, are classic examples of how matured democracies abhor corruption. South-Africa and Mauritius never allowed the leaders breathing spaces until they eased them out of power, parading them in courts, all the same. The same scenario is playing out in Brazil where two successive leaders, Dilma Rousseff and her predecessor, Luiz Lula da Silva are currently in court answering charges on corruption over alleged 400 million euro bribe. In Israel, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is facing charges filed against him by the Police, which recommended his prosecution on two count charges of corruption and breach of trust. Nigeria too can fall in line with countries that present great abhorrence for corruption, showing sincerity of purpose and the will-power to just fight the menace at all levels.

this is a good write up that has not only proven to Nigerians what the vp has been doing but has also defined him as a person, address this man as the vp of this country and not a pastor, it is 2 different callings. good work mr VP

The citizen of this great country should be happy to have him as our second citizen,he is a man of integrity of note,a man that have the fear of God in his mind,an academician of note,someone that is not religious or tribal bias,the brain box behind this government success.i give it to him.may God almighty give him more strength him more to be able to do more for this great nation of ours....

Mr. VP sir, you are just a complete inspiration and motivation to me personally.
You are indeed a man of integrity, honor, dignity and valour. The professor has refused to submit to the blackmailing, the castigating, the demoralizing comments by misled and misinformed people. Let the defeated, frustrated and dispirited Reno keep ranting and spewing.
His source of usefulness is dead and he is just looking for attention and trying to remain relevant.

It is very clear that the Vice President is a good and Honest man that meant well for Nigeria, he has always been demonstrating that in all his activities. we really have to support him as a youth for better Nigeria. God bless Nigeria

The VP has been a good representative of Christian body,i did not voted him in 3yrs ago because he's pastor, I gave him and PMB my vote because I believe in them and they have not disappoint me, the issue of reporting him to Daddy GO is an insult from Reno Omokri and his supporters.what do they take us for? Nobody should take them serious they are noise makers

In Nigeria as at today, Osinbajo is the kind of leaders we need at the helm of affair. If people of good caliber and moral record and even men of God refuse to take the responsibilities of leadership...claiming that the game is dirty and their name needs to be protected, the fact of the matter is that we will continue to be led by the same set of bad people whom are only after their pocket and selfish interest. Osinbajo has been able to prove most people wrong, who believe politics and religion can't go hand in hand

The VP has been a good representative of Christian body,i did not voted him in 3yrs ago because he's pastor, I gave him and PMB my vote because I believe in them and they have not disappoint me, the issue of reporting him to Daddy GO is an insult from Reno Omokri and his supporters.what do they take us for? Nobody should take them serious they are noise makers

Sometimes i used to worry about this our political system, by now Jonathan suppose be in jail. up till now he has not meet with pastor Adeboye to make a report of the VP allegation against him. because he know any attempt to lie before the man of God can make di instantly.

Prof Yemi Osinbajo has been doing excellently well for the development of this nation, i have always believed in him because of his humanitarian selfless service mind. Prof Yemi Osinbajo is a blessing to this Country. He's working to create peaceful environment for all citizen to enjoy.As a result of the creation of SIP, lots of Nigerians has benefited from it.God bless you sir

This man has proved himself beyond reasonable doubt that he has the interest of every Nigerians at heart. His judicious efforts to making Nigerians great again cannot be over-emphasized. He has been a threat to the opposition because they know that he has great potentials and is totally different from them all.

Believe me my brother,this is not a hype but a fact about our beloveth...

I stand to tell Nigerians that Mr Reno is a liar just as his formal boss, all he is doing is to tarnish the image of the VP. We should remember that Mr Reno is the formal social aide of president Jonathan he's bin bought,paid and he is not saying the truth.Hes not even a member of Rccg.

VP OSINBAJO is a diligent, fantastic and grandee. His profile is intimidating and record difficult to rubbish. VP is a loyal man to all his past and present leader. In the Church he is a leader of repute, in the bar he is a role model for the body of bar, in the politics he is a loyal follower of Asiwaju and a active and energetic prowl in purse his political responsibility with passion. As VP he remain the best VP in the history of Nigeria with his level of intelligence and creativity and the most loyal VP to his principal.

Just of recent when i read views of Nigerians concerning Professor Yemi Osinbajo both the bad and good the views, i tried to read in-between the line in order to draw my own point from their views and make conclusion on whom the man was. As if that was not enough, i forge ahead to make research about his person and i discovered that his life had experienced tremendously grace of God, academics excellence and success. A distinguished senior advocate of Nigeria, Professor and senior pastor in The Redeemed Christian Church Of God. What are the views of the masses about him? There is no doubt that Osinbajo remain the best man to have occupied the office of the Vice President of the federal republic of Nigeria through the roles his playing to restore the economy of the country, establishment of national social intervention programme design to meet the needs of the youths, women, children and the vulnerables. His support for President Muhammadu buhari in the area of anti-corruption crusade cannot be over emphasized but to some, they believe he has not done enough and thereby refer to him as a fake pastor and this is exactly where i want to leverage on. Pastoral work is a thing of the spirit that should not be confused with politics. If anybody want to question Professor Osinbajo calling, i think it is advisable for such persons to go to the church and his position as the Vice President should be totally regarded as political platform to engage him on any issues. The two should not be confused.......I think the man have distinguished himself to justify the two.

It is a privilege to have a man of integrity, man of honour and loyalty in power. The VP is a gift to this nation because he has really helped in promoting this country in area of economy development, fighting against corruption and education stability. ..

The vp has proved to be a true man of God despite several criticms from some quaters. Through his selfless service and tremendous dedication to the growth of the country, he has practically fused his strength as a pastor and politician. He has created a plausible balance between the 2. Not so many can do that. KUDOS TO MR. VP.

This is a leader of good reputation that we really need in this country. He's serving diligently and working for the Nation's to develop at all cost... Some people are vying position for personal benefit and selfish gain. Prof Yemi Osinbajo is a distinguish leader that stand out in all ramifications. He's a motivation and inspiration to the youths of this great Nation. He's able to maneuver his way in initiating the programs for the masses of this country with the challenges of low income...

we are so lucky in this our country to have an intelligent vp prof yemi osinbajo,the man that has a good heart and meant well for this nation but some people are trying so hard in sabotaging the good good work this present government has been doing.imagine the curruption that occurs during the last government and the so called looters are trying to fight back in blackmailing the good man by all means but Nigerians are more wiser now that nobody can brainwash us to turn our back to the person that is repolishing the image of our dear country.......God bless osinbajo,God bless Nigeria

we can't eventually enter a river after a long while we did wish to and still be crying of cold, we can't be shouting, crying and praying for a good leader to govern an entity called Nigeria then start employing a pull him down syndrome after eventually finding one in a character like that of the VP.
This a man that is different from the normal specie of politicians that parade Nigeria political circle, his intelligence is unrivaled, his finesse is of great candour and he has shown and exhibit qualities of a good role model, i have absolute trust in his style of leadership and noise makers like that of Reno Omokri and his uncultured lieutenants trying to paint Prof Osinbajo in bad light will soon fizzle away with the wind.
How i wish i can be under the mentorship of Prof Osinbajo for just 3 months i know that will be a life changing experience for me and my life will never remain the same again.

Really i see this man as a loyal Man, a wonderful leader, as i look into his achievement, his life, i see he is a blessing to this country and he is a honest person, he speaks the truth, i just see those who wants to blackmail or rubbishing him, as just a stumbling blocks to his achievements, but we all must stand firm with him, so he can achieve what he has for this government

Prof yemi Osinbajo need to be appreciate for his selfless leadership towards putting the national economy on track for fast recovery as head of the Economic Team, Prof Osinbajo has won the heart of the Nigerian youths for the government through a well-designed Social Intervention Programme, SIP, comprising the N-Power,GEEP Market Moni, Home Grown School Feeding initiative and the Conditional Cash Transfer for the unemployed in the country.The gaint move towards better and progressive nation..Nigeria will be great ONE DAY..i believe

At this juncture i think this will help many people about have huge knowledge and the understanding of whom Osinbajo is all about, If they want address him as Pastor, i think they should march down to the church he's Pastoral on they should not mix hot water with cold, and also if he will be address as Politician, they should go straight to Aso Rock, instead of making unnecessary Argument and be trying to critcize his Pastoral calling...

he's only managed to put his soul at risk.
integrity rejects every form of falsehood.
light and dark cannot abide.
bottom line: he should be ready to carry his load.
this life is temporary.

Honestly, the comments were so positive, it was obvious it was from a fake handle.

After reading the first 3, I just knew it was scam.

Imagine what Nigerian youths have turned to and these thieves know this.

Don't be surprised if you find out the accounts are owned by just 1 person

I have always loved professor Osinbajo right from when he was my pastor at OLIVE TREE in lagos state,he is such a kindhearted,gentle,calm and GOD fearing man,he is a blessing to Nigeria,and am using this medium to say that i will still vote him in come 2019
