The APC presidential candidate Gen. Mohammed Buhari has finally cleared the air on whom his runing mate for the February 2015 general election would be after he publicly released his first picture with Professor Yemi Osinbajo hence declaring him as his deputy under the umbrella of the APC come 2015 general elections.
Responding to critics while accepting the offer, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo said he would be very proud to serve Nigeria with Gen. Mohammed Buhari if elected into Office next year and promised to restore the lost hope of Nigerians.
In his acceptance speech, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo said
"I am deeply honoured and grateful to have been nominated as the Vice-Presidential candidate of our party, APC and especially the Presidential candidate, General Muhammadu Buhari.
"I also thank the leaders and elders of our great
party, APC for the trust reposed in me.
"The task of rebuilding this nation is one to
which I am fully committed. There can be no
other President, Leader and commander that
can lead that common sense revolution Nigeria
urgently needs than General Muhammadu
Buhari. I will proudly serve this country with
him.
"General Buhari's uprightness and fierce
commitment to good governance is well known.
It will be a privilege to work with him. I come to
this assignment with lots of hope and a resolve
to be a part of this movement to bring Nigeria
back to its lost glory. With the support of all
Nigerians and the help of God, we shall make
Nigeria work again.
"I will work with him and the party to restore
hope and confidence in millions of our youth
and provide comfort and security for millions of
our country men and women.
I thank you all".
The APC yet remains the greatest Opposition party threating the re-election of the incumbent President Goodluck Jonathan come 2015.
On selection of his deputy, hopes were that Governor Rochas Okorocha would be the best candidate based on his experience inorder to pave way for even representation of the South East Region in governance but the revearse turned the case.
The stage currently is set for 2015 election in the country as all stakeholders hands are on deck to see to its success, but Who do you think would emerge Nigerias next President, the Jonathan- Sambo group OR the Buhari- Osinbajos group. Please feel free to say your opinion.
