– The Professor Yemi Osinbajo That I Know
Until Gen. Buhari picked Professor
Yemi Osinbajo as his running mate, I was not certain about my decision. In my
opinion the choice of Professor Osinbajo wasn’t just a choice made by man, I
believe it was God who handpicked him as Buhari’s running mate.
Why do I think so?
I know the man!
I know the man!
I would dare to say that I
personally do not know any other Christian leader in Nigeria with the kind of
impeccable reputation, character and integrity as that of Professor Osinbajo.
Friends, THE MAN IS REAL!
Friends, THE MAN IS REAL!
Everyone talks about the integrity
and the purity of Pastor Adeboye and rightly so, I dare to say that Professor
Osinbajo is a son and a carbon copy of Pastor Adeboye when it comes to
integrity and character. Anybody who has met him will affirm the same.
There is no other person like
Professor Osinbajo! Anyone that knows him very well will tell you the same
thing. He is in a class of his own. I can confidently vouch for him and say to
my fellow Nigerians that with the emergence of Professor Osinbajo, we can
say at last that Nigeria as a nation has started releasing her best sons to the
seat of government.
Ecclesiastics 10:16-17
16 Woe to you, O land, when your king is a child,
And your princes feast in the morning!
16 Woe to you, O land, when your king is a child,
And your princes feast in the morning!
17 Blessed are you, O land, when
your king is the son of nobles,
And your princes feast at the proper time—For strength and not for drunkenness!
And your princes feast at the proper time—For strength and not for drunkenness!
In the ticket of Gen. Buhari and
Professor Osinbajo, I see sons of nobles becoming the kings of Nigeria. I see
in these people, princes that would feast at the proper time- for strength and
not for drunkenness.
Unfortunately what has been
happening in Nigeria in the last six years can only be compared to a situation
where the kings of our land has been like children, who feast in the morning.
The predictable outcome of such a predicament is a tale of woes.
As a result, Nigeria has not been
able to set herself free from all sorts of calamities, adversaries, woes and
troubles, because our rulers have been as children and our princes (government
officials) are those who like to feast in the morning. No purposeful person
goes to feast in the morning, the morning is a time of labor, hard work and
diligence. But from the stories we have been hearing of how our natural
resources and billions of dollars are been depleted, we could see that our
princes are on a ‘shopping and spending spree’.
However, we need sons of nobles,
those who will know how to delay their gratification, restrain their appetite
and those who will go to work hard on behalf of the nation.
The Osinbajo and Buhari that I know
are men of Nobles that know how to delay gratification, men who don’t expect
something for nothing, men of diligent labor.
Professor Osinbajo is one of the
youngest and most brilliant Professor of Law Nigeria has ever produced. He
understands law, academics and economics. He is perfectly prepared to manage
the nation. His eight years in the executive arm of the Lagos state government
attests to this. He brought more reforms to the government than any attorney
general has ever done. His reputation was so outstanding, pure and
incorruptible that it gained a legendary status among those who know him.
Friends, believe me, if he could do that in Lagos state, he can do that for
Nigeria.
Professor Osinbajo is not just an
intellectual per excellence, but he is a genuine child of God, a Pastor who
cannot be a stooge to anyone.
