The VP academics can go ahead to sue Vanguard.He will definitely fail.No wonder he is yet to become VP admin rather he is still stuck in VP academics

Nonentity. Always speaks from his anus. VP has not even sued your useless newspaper but already retracted their fake news. Tell Timi Frank to be ready for his own portion.
Whether you referred him as VP whatever, PYO has achieved more than you have ever dreamt of in your life time. Asshole.

To become a professor in a Nigerian university, moreso a professor of law at the University of Lagos is a very difficult task. I think Unilag professorial recruitment in law is one of the toughest in the country. Unilag professors include Jelili Adebisi Omotola, Akin Oyebode, Yemi Osinbajo and Taiwo Osipitan, undoubtedly some of the most brilliant legal minds in Nigeria. They were/are all SANs. To become a SAN is a very herculean task. Check the track record of those who hold it. You can attest to the brilliance of the Vice-President, and if you are not mischievious, you can tell there was a loud difference when he ran this country while the President was away on sick leave. He had to mellow down in order not to outshine the President, which is what a wise and sensible person would do.

I admire him.

When a newspaper publishes a libelous news, it can lead to sedition and unrest. This was why Buhari instituted the infamous Decree 4 in 1984 that saw two journalists land in prison. The journalistic ethos requires that news must be verified before going to the press. For example, in the 1970s, when Daily Times was the most popular Nigerian newspaper, the editors got hold of a story which had to be run. The then military government got wind of it and knowing the editors had done a thorough job in getting that story, they did not attempt to stop the story, rather they begged for the story to be delayed because they had to do something. When they finished, the story was published and Daily Times published the news, selling the highest copies in its history (and it was a government-owned newspaper!). Today, newspapers publish half-baked news items without verifying and doing diligent homework thereby publishing blatant falsehood. If Femi Falana sues their asses, they are done.

I think there is a campaign of calumny against the Vice-President. I really don't know why. But the fact that he survived two air accidents tells me that he should not be underrated. Hate him all you like, but I tell you one thing, that man has an aura around him. If you are a bad person, you can never like him, no matter what he does. I have never met him and I don't know him personally. If he is destined to be Nigeria's President, no one can stop him. And if you hate him, you really need to check yourself.

May God Bless you I cannot agree less with your assertion.

Timi Frank allegations is not weighty...
For the fact that FIRS money was used for campaign doesn't affect oshibajo track record in any form... don't forget oshibajo is a snr lawyer. Does he collect the money directly from FIRS? Does he have enough evidence yhat is traceable to oshibajo? He shld says what he can defend or else he will be a source of quashing the political space of this country....
And whoever stay in the glass house never throw a stone .... As far as timi Frank record is clean , he can pursue the case but if he has committed financial blunder before, then he should be expecting either DSS, EFCC or police soon...
Let him learn his lesson from olisha metu ... And be wise.

the distant truth is osinbajo didn't loot i refused to believe it...However he might have received the money as he headed the agency but the said funds went for tradermoni which has been largely criticized..Well the court will straighten it out if it gets there.. Trust me Timi Frank will loose it.. Politics in Nigeria is something that should have his own nomenclature....

In case you don't know, you cannot waive your immunity while still being President or VP. You have to either resign or complete your term in office before you can do this.

...Urges DSS, EFCC, others to investigate his allegation
...Urges VP to resign

A political activist and former Deputy National Publicity Secretary of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Comrade Timi Frank, has challenged Vice President Yemi Osinbajo to sue him instead of threatening Media Houses over his latest revelation of N90 billion used for the last general elections.

Frank said he was anxiously waiting to receive court summon from the Vice President, assuring that such move will afford Nigerians and the international community opportunity to hear more about the activities of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) pastor (Osinbajo).

He also asked Osinbajo to resign as VP to give room for thorough investigation and unbiased prosecution in court, saying "this is important so as not to influence the judiciary as well as use public funds to pursue the case as a sitting Vice President."

The political activist had revealed how the VP allegedly collected about N90 billion from the Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS) to fund the last presidential election.

Responding through a statement to a letter Osinbajo sent through his lawyer, Femi Falana to Vanguard Newspapers for a retraction, Frank said he is rather expecting the VP to sue him instead of threatening the media House for keeping the general public informed.

"I understand Prof. Osinbajo, through Femi Falana has written Vanguard Newspaper, demanding for a retraction. It is a move to silence the media and those of us speaking for Nigerians. I challenge Osinbajo to sue me and not Vanguard Newspaper. I'm prepared to meet him in court whenever he is ready to do so.

"The VP should know that I can not be intimidated by his threat. We shall meet in court
"The VP is trying to intimidate everyone including the media but he has forgotten how he accused others like former President Goodluck Jonathan and former Senate President Bukola Saraki without any evidence," Frank stated.

While urging Vanguard and other newspapers to stand firm, Frank called on the Economic Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Director of the State Security Service (DSS), Independent Corrupt Practices Offences Commission (ICPC) to investigate his claims objectively.

"Osinbajo is trying to use his position as Vice President to intimidate me and especially the Vanguard Newspaper but he won't succeed.
"I have also spoken with Femi Falana, the VP's lawyer who has confirmed that he has a letter from the Vice President for me but I'm yet to receive the letter," he stated.

Frank also challenged the EFCC to quickly release the reports of its earlier investigation of the activities of the Federal Inland Revenue Services (FIRS) under the current leadership.

I really like your ways of reasoning but this is Nigeria!! People like to make false accusations without evidence.
Evening GEJ that I really like when he started, so many allegations were made against him that were not true. The truth is our star boy will keep breaking records. This time it will be on those passing the fake news!! We really need to start playing politics of progressiveness and not bitterness. I am not saying anybody is saint but get valid allegations and make it count. It is definitely not my VP Prof. Osinbajo that will be found wanting under Buhari. This is best vice president we’ve ever had in this country. Nobody, I mean nobody can tarnish his image not even the north!! The cabals stories were just politics, Nigerians know better now.
They said ABBA Kyari, even Aisha Buhari was against his reappointment. Abeg, you people should be prepared and have a good shock absorber come 2023.
That reminds me, GEJ with all his veto power could not even jail Tinubu. So it is now anyone wants to tackle them. I laugh!!
