Osinbajo Speaks On Resigning As VP Over Exclusion From Security Meeting [Video]

Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo, has dismissed reports speculated in some quarters that he has resigned from his position as the Vice President of the country.

The social media had been flooded with unconfirmed reports that Osinbajo had threatened to resign in anger after he was reportedly not allowed to attend a security meeting President Muhammadu Buhari.

However, reacting to the report via his official Twitter handle, the VP tagged the misleading reports as ‘fake news’ designed to achieve some political means in relation to the forthcoming elections. He revealed that he couldn’t attend Tuesday’s security meeting because he was busy.

In the Twitter post he wrote:

“Misleading/FAKE news is on the rise especially in this season when Nigerians will make a choice about who will govern them for the next four years. I have not resigned!

“I remain committed to the service of the Nigerian people under the leadership of President Muhammadu Buhari.”
