Yemi OSINBAJO: Now that Tinubu has informed Mr President

Asiwaju Tinubu just told of his lifelong ambition of becoming President. Fine, as a Nigerian, he's imminently qualified. But there's a caveat. Does Tinubu fit perfectly into the present reality in the country? He further claimed to have the confidence and capacity to be President.
Does these variables alone determines what makes a better President?

Tinubu's credentials were inarguably his many feats in Lagos as Governor, some two decades ago. Interestingly, Prof OSINBAJO was part of that success as Asiwaju couldn't singlehandedly do it alone. He was Attorney general and commissioner of Justice, whatever success recorded by Asiwaju, Prof had a stake in it.

The dynamics of the country had changed, the realities and challenges too. Two decades down, the trajectory on politics and governance had taken a difficult path, ushering a more complex and critical scenario which equally requires sagacious approach to surmount it.

Prof OSINBAJO has been very much around, at least within the circle of leadership and comes to terms with daily realities of the country. Who then is in better position to understand the dynamics?

Nigerians would ultimately want a President that is alive to his responsibility, up and doing. A pragmatist who would turn things around having been in the center. Prof OSINBAJO fits in perfectly.

A President whose ability to take a bullet for the Young, the entrepreneurs, the Market women, the Farmers, the Old and vulnerable is what we need, and in Prof OSINBAJO, we have found that.
As Chair, National Economic Council,his many interventions for MSME, helped stimulate economic growth and saved it from imminent collapse.
Prof OSINBAJO has wittingly stabilized that sector by paying due attention to it. The testimony to that is evident.

Nigerians are desirous of working President, because OSINBAJO has a work in progress. He is undoubtedly in a better position to consolidate, and build on, by bringing innovative and fresh ideas to governance.

Now that some mischief makers are harping on some obscure "Moral" issues on why Prof OSINBAJO should not run against Asiwaju, we must resist that ploy to deny Nigerians the best thing to ever happen to them, as far as prudence and accountable governance is concerned
