Presidency: Osinbajo speaks on quitting politics after losing APC primary to Tinubu

Vice President Yemi Osinbajo

Despite losing his bid to be the All Progressives Congress, APC, presidential candidate, Vice President Yemi Osinbajo has stated that he will remain active in politics.

Osinbajo stated that he would continue to participate in active politics that would result in real change.

Speaking with “representatives of the Diaspora Professionals for PYO” during a virtual meeting, Osinbajo said he would continue to push for a better Nigeria.

A statement by his media aide, Laolu Akande, quotes Osinbajo as saying: “I intend to stay very actively engaged in the politics of our country, because I believe strongly that, if God gives us that opportunity, the change will be swift and we will make a real difference.

“We must continue to push. If we give up and say let’s see how it goes, we will be much further back than where we started from.”

Osinbajo came third behind Bola Tinubu and Rotimi Amaechi during the APC presidential primary, about two weeks ago.

The APC Special Convention was held in Abuja.
