What do you guys think of Prof Osinbajo as APC VP candidate?

Never heard of him until today...and I've been racking my head since I heard he was the one picked to be Buhari's running mate. Why him though? I keep wondering why not Fashola?

Prof. Osibajo taught me Law of Evidence once in University of Lagos. He was the former AG of Lagos (I am surprised you have never heard of him) he is a scholar and I believe he is good to go.

Unknown said...

I think they can and will both go a long way. Choosing a Pastor is a great move and major plus for APC. Their chances are kind of high cos now so many people might be confused as to der decision for d election.

APC is filled with miscreants and touts, and if they think they can shift the poll in their favor by placing a "PASTOR" as a running mate to Buhari they must be joking

Austine ihechukwu said...

Seriously I dnt knw anytn abt the man bt I tink its really a nice political scheming by APC cos they already knew that south south nd south east is already locked down by jonathan, and sice the north is all 4 buhari, the south west becomes the beautifull bride, and I tink givn em the slot of the vp was a smart move by APC, bt 4 the man as a person, I dnt tink he is a good politician, bt who knws mayb wot this country need is nt politicians, time will definitly tell

Unknown said...

Fashola would v bin a beta option bt he wasn't pickd cos of d. Muslim/muslim of a thing......it shld v bin oshiomole bt Tinubu want som1 he can control nd dey fink RCCG has crowd so by picking one of dere pastor dey'l d members of d chrch wil vote massively..........well as 4 mi oo Oyo is dere case

Anonymous said...

The professor looks LOST........lol

Unknown said...

The reason is simple. If buhari had pick Fashola it Wud hav bn a muslim-muslim ticket and the christian community won't vote them

Choosing this RCCG pastor is a smart strategy since the church and some Christians will vote.

But then! The VP office is not a sensitive one. The man will simply be in the background and only answer wen Buhari calls.

He won't have any say in any matter unless Buhari passes on (I don't wish him that) and he becomes the president.

The thing is.. people shd not be deceived by this strategy

Anonymous said...

Prof Osinbajo, is a good candidate... Governor Fashola remains tthe best candidate but a muslim-muslim ticket in this era of religious violence will not go well for the desired change we need. Fashols can still an impact if we vote out Okupe Bastard; Abati. Prodigal; President Jonathan is just unfortunate to be surrounded by wolves all in the name of advisers. We need to sweep them out and bring the desired change Nigeria needs.

1. Fashola is a muslim. And since he is a xtian, no doubt abt that...this is politic, they know preety well that they will get vote through this man of God.. Its a game now, bakare didn't work well last election so they had no choice to pick a man that is a special assistant to a whole G.O of RCCG...linda it is a big plus 4 them... Am so sure 45 percent of RCCG members that want to vote GEJ before will vote 4 this man of God and come nxt year u see APC @ the top...am proud to say am number 1 member that do not support GEJ again cos of the wah GMB did today...

Breezy said...

Hi Linda, i am not sure if its part of the constitution but Buhari is Muslim, so is Fashola. So a Muslim-Muslim ticket will brand the party a muslim one. But then again , its rubbish. All we need are people of unquestionable character to lead the country out of the doom. That said, i am a fan of Fashola, but never for Buhari. My vote goes to GEJ.

Unknown said...

Fashola is a muslim so he could never have picked Fashola,he needed a christian cos its nt only muslim dt is in Nigeria,Nigeria has 2 most recognised Religion,christian and muslim,if he had picked fashola,christians will not vote for him cos they will think he will islamise Nigeria,but to me,Oshibanjo is a good man,he has been a good man so far ,so I think the man is the right choice,do u even think vice presidents have more say?no they don't,cos Buhari might not give room for that,the parrty controls them,its like parliamentry system of Government in decision making,but ithink Buhari is a strong man,and if he gives room for Oshibanjo,Nigeria will be so good cos,he is an activist,A lawyer who knows the right of the people,and a true pastor who knows wht the bible well,I pray they change Nigeria,if they are voted in.

Not Fashola because we same Nigerians saying why not fashola will later say Buhari is a fanatic for picking A muslim.

VP has to create the balance Fashola will be a minister in the Government so he isnt out.

Unknown said...

It cant be Fashola cos of Muslim Muslim tinz I fink tho. APC has played another card for PDP reason been that He is a xtain not an ordinary one but a Pastor from RCC whc I fink RCC is d largest church in nijia now so as a voter if u didn't belief in Buhari u wil belief in Him. And I believed majority of RCC members wil vote for him. RCC all over Nigeria will campaign for APC " my view" waliygine@yahoo.com

There is only one choice. It is clear.

An Igbo youth. Each time I travel from Onitsha to Enugu then to Aba, I reaffirm my commitment to vote out GEJ.

I don't expect Buhari to be the Saviour. Am just motivated to punish this old way of doing things.

May be 2019 I will be voting out Buhari. We need to change. We have millions of options.

Go GMB. We the South East commoners are behind you.

Linda, the is the good for the game..APC played wisely on this..believe it of not, religion is very 'critical' issue in Nigeria.it will be a disaster for the party to have a Muslim as president and vice president..many people believe that Islam want to take over the country and APC choosing a muslim as Buhari;s running mate will do them bad.i think the man he picked is ok, just that he looks some how,but thats not a problem though.

Buhari is looking for pastors to give him a sheep's clothing to cover his wolf and viper self and intentions!!! Osinbajo may be a good man like Bakare though less controvertial and more intellectual, the intention of Tinubu (the thief) and Buhari (the bigot) is to us this man to woo christians and especially redeemed members vote. The utterrances, actions and inactions of Buhari in the past has already exposed who he is and his intentions. For a 72yr old man to come out and say Abacha was not corrupt despite evidence to the contrary tells a lot about his so called anti corruption stand!!! Even my 10 yr old nephew can write an article on Abacha's corruption and misdeeds. Nigerians shine your eyes!!!

Linda..i dont expect this kind of question. Choosing Fashola will make APC lose. PDP will move in and play the religious card if they do. And i tell you the population of people with your kind of mentality that will choose competence over religion is very marginal. Stop shouting Fashola Fashola as if you dont know the dynamics of Nigerian Politics...

Anonymous said...

Honestly Linda,I think its a wonderful choice,tho I personally would have preferred Fashola as his running mate,

But Even at that,speaking Honestly,Nigeria is in a lot of mess and I think what can save us now are the extreme measures.

Buhari is said to be a Strong and Devoted Muslim,Pastor Prof too is a Strong and a Devoted Christian,I think in their case,Iron will sharpen Iron and when one wants to fall,the other can use his will power to get him back on track.
Nigeria is at a position where we need people who can not be Corrupted,people that have Integrity,people that will push and make any public officer pay for their incompetence and nonchalance,we need a Good and Positive Change and I think these two can do us some good,let us just think and support them...I mean what is the worst that can happen to Nigeria that hasn't happened?should we now just fold our arms and let GEJ mislead us for another 4 years?

And to those saying a Pastor shouldn't go in to Politics,I wanna say that if God wants to use a Pastor to sanitize and clean the dirt and filth in the Nigerain system then it is perfectly ok,these are Difficult times for Nigeria now and we need Extreme measures and Iron hand to get back our Lost Glory.

Fashola was everyone's choice.but Nigerians would never accept a Muslim Muslim ticket even if the Muslim is GOD.we have been so stupidly brainwashed that there won't have been any chance of them winning.
but since GMB won the APC ticket and he announced his running mate,pdp has done nothing but go on media propaganda.now I'm sure they will attempt to smear the Prof.

they are tryna make pple forget that the aim of the major candidate is to islamise 9ja, ie d spread of sharia law throughput nigeria. is that what we want???

I suspect he (the vp candidate) would end up as a figure head, and would only support what the President wants to do, its d president that counts and not the vp, how often do u hear the vp this or the vp that,

the inclusion of the pastor is just to get xtians votes and its even possible something happens and the vp is replaced later on or is just dormant..... as dormant as GEJ was as a VP b4 he became acting president and then president

Linda he has been selected. The only reason why Fashola was not was because of religion. Much as I disagree with disqualifying people on religious grounds we have to agree the country its current state is not ready for a Muslim/Muslim ticket. Prof Osibajo is very erudite and I must say he as good as Fashola. The only difference is that he hasn't served in a capacity as big as governorship. I've listened to him once and was blown away.

haba linda, how can you say u ve never heard of yemi osibanjo who was the former attorney general of lagos state, pastor of one of the biggest redeem parish in lagos, an artivist with a very big law firm in Nierian plus he is SAN and former HOD in Unilag. As for why he was choose over fashola l think it is cos he is a christian nd fashola is a muslim APC cant afford to ve 2muslim candidate. Reddeem has such a large population of members all over the world and l bet you they will support one of their own.Finally this man is incorruptable , he has friends accross the country especially lawyers,pastors and lectures

Buhari won't get my vote even if he makes our general overseer his running mate #JustSayingTho

He was pikd by TINUBU not BUHARI.

APC SHOULD NOT WASTE OUR VOTE OH .. HEN HEN

Unknown said...

Me too have not heard of him before. Why not Fashola is APC's internal politics.

I think everything is still Buhari, because Vice, Deputy is not always heard of in this country.

Princess G said...

Hmmmm, APC daris God oooo. Bcos they knew RCCG has the highest number of church and probably worshipers, they decided to pick vice from there. Hmmmmmm, anyways they won't succeed bcos God is not a respecter of man. Shekina.

Prof is a man of repute. When his name came up as a vp to GMB, I cant but acknowledge the intelligence of BAT
The man is an administrator of repute, very intelligent and humble.

Fashola is a muslim. It can b two muslims being d President and d VP. Since I don't know anything about d Pst other than what I've read on your previous posts about him, I'll not say anything 4 now.

Political gimmicks! He's a pastor, the Christians will vote for him and the Muslims will vote for Buhari, more votes = Buhari becomes the president. And then he will choose his real VP when he gets there. This dude is not really a politician so he will give him less trouble when it's time to get rid of him.
And the gullible Nigerians will sheepishly buy into the stupid plan even though one will think that they should be able to see that someone is carefully trying to play smart. Why must he always use a pastor and not just anyone? Because Nigerians need to be fooled and he is not taking any chances!

Nobody knew Fashola before he was suddenly picked by Tinubu. But look how well he turned out to be. Look at d bright side, this man is probably the first and most educated person we have at d pinnacle of power since d history of Nigeria democracy. *Fingers crossed*

Unknown said...

Linda, this your statement is stupid. I'm beginning to think you are too.

Wild Child said...

He could not have picked Fashola as his VP because a muslim-muslim ticket would not give them a winning chance

Emaax43 said...

Hmm.... Everybody wants Fashola but it mustn't be Fashola. Btw, i fink its a gud combination.

AQO said...

Besides, you APC people are really annoying me o... A small broom not even up 2 a handful was sold 2 me for #100 today. You guys should just stop!!

Linda dearie, without sounding biased, i think this is a complete game changer with regards to this elections 2015! Truly, Prof is a very decent and simple Man even as a Pastor. I've met him once and have been privileged to listen to him share God's word! I think APC 's choice just secured them a front row seat ...... #myopinon iyaoyinda1@yahoo.com

linda if fashola is comin out! twuld be as president nt vc! aswear buhari wil gladly loose dis shii* pdp all d way

Unknown said...

I think first that the APC guys are very smart. They thought of the fact that RCCG has almost the largest congregation as long as church is concerned in Nigeria. They want to tactically lure Christians into voting GMB ( e no go work). For me, they can only try! 2011 it was with Bakare...2015 it is Osinbajo...2019 it will be...? #TeamGej

Unknown said...

Lmao!!! Fake people! Buhari is just uusing their heads

Anonymous said...

The Reason is simple. RCCG(redeemed Christian Church of God) has a good number of population in Nigeria and with their votes, APC is one step closer 2 ASO rock! And trust Nigerians, with the rate at which they follow religion, they will believe the man is a righteous candidate! Period!!

Unknown said...

Change is all we call for....vote for change

Julz Cakes said...

I think he's a good choice.Fashola would have been better but nigerians would bring religion into it and that would give pdp the edge they seek. But the man looks like these small stubborn people o...lol.Short prof..I sure say him no go dey gree easily.

ejoke said...

Prof Osibanjo is a professsor at Unilag, Faculty of Law where i schooled and also a Senior Advocate of Nigeria. He is indeed a great man of honour & respect.

Anonymous said...

Gosh! What are all these old people holding on to politics in this new age? This is so pathetic, I swear!!!! Why won't they let younger generation context and move the country forward? This is pathetic...look at this old withered man he nominated as his running mate. He couldn't find a more capable young-minded youth to run with? Sad for Nigeria...same old bullsh!t!

Tony Oche said...

Great team

Dr. Rukevwe said...

There may be other reasons, but for me, its political...to win the hearts of Christians, especially those who attend RCCG, and if possible (which I doubt), get the endorsement of Pastor Adeboye. We all know in the past, President Goodluck Jonathan went to Pastor Adeboye for prayers over his political ambition...Now I hear Buhari is also planning to go to Pastor Adeboye for his...

Why him though? Are you a goat? Linda?





Unknown said...

Madam Linda, if APC had picked Fashola, it would have been a muslim-muslim ticket, which would have raised eyebrows and reduced their chances.
Osibajo appears a great small man. LOL

Bossman said...

The prospect of prof osinbajo vice presidency is exciting. He comes with intimidating credentials and impeccable track record

Anonymous said...

Sorry to APC..the two don't match at all..I guess Asiwaju wan expand his immunity. Giving GEJ a smooth cruise
