2023 Presidency: Osinbajo Finally Breaks Silence, Says I’ll Declare My Position Soon

Vice President Yemi Osinbajo’s spokesperson, Laolu Akande, has stated that the vice president will soon officially declare his candidacy for the 2023 presidential election.

On the occasion of Osinbajo’s 65th birthday, Lalolu revealed this on Tuesday while answering questions from State House Correspondents.

Lalolu told reporters that Osinbajo is currently focused on his job of collaborating with President Muhammadu Buhari.

Well, as he has stated previously, he is dedicated to the work for which he was elected vice president and to supporting the president.

“That is what he is focused on right now,” he said, adding, “and as I also said in my last tweet, whatever his activities or whatever he does will be communicated officially.”

Mr Akande said the vice president was motivated by the idea that government, governance, and leadership should have a heart of justice and a heart of service, based on his observations over the last seven to eight years.

“In almost all of our meetings, he says that the reason we’re here is because people put us here.

“We are here to serve the people,” he says, “so he is someone who is committed to that notion of public service, whether in government, as a pastor, or as a lawyer.”

“He fully grasps the concept that we are here to serve in every aspect of his life.”

Mr. Osinbajo, he said, had always emphasized the importance of making an impact on the people.

The vice president, he claims, is very inspiring and deserving of leadership.

“As you can see, there are a lot more Nigerians today who want to say, ‘This is the kind of man I want to follow.'” So, vice president, happy birthday,” he said.
