Nigeria’s Vice President, Professor Yemi Osinbajo has asserted that history will speak more eloquently on the stewardship of the President muhhammadu Buhari’s Presidency.
VP Osinbajo said the many testimonials of beneficiaries of different programmes under the Administration are already clear testament that inspire hope and belief that Nigeria can be transformed in our lifetime.
Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, SAN made this submission on Wednesday at the unveiling of the PMB Legacy Assured, a compendium of achievements of President Muhammadu Buhari’s two terms captured by the Ministerial Scorecard series organized by the Minister of information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed.
The Vice President said that the millions of beneficiaries of several people-friendly schemes of the administration such as the Social Investment Programmes, SIP, among others, “are real people provided with a springboard to do more for themselves and for their communities; real people inspired to hope and believe that Nigeria can be positively transformed in our lifetime.”
Highlighting the social impact of President Buhari’s administration in this regard, Professor Osinbajo was of the view that time and history would speak more eloquently of our stewardship.
“I believe I speak the mind of the President when I say that our administration considers it a privilege and an honour to serve the people of our great nation as we have done in the last eight years. These accomplishments are the hard-won dividends of the social contract we entered into with the Nigerian people when we came into office in 2015.”
Pointing out the continuity in government even after the current administration, the Vice President observed that “life for the living also offers a continuum, such that even when we are no longer in office, we can and must continue to pursue the fulfilment of our country’s great promise and potential wherever we find ourselves.”
On the PMB Legacy Assured scorecard series compilations, Professor Osinbajo commended the Information Minister and his team for compiling the Ministerial Score card series, and the PMB legacy portal which was unveiled at the event.
He described it as a brilliant attempt at keeping a faithful record in audio, video and print of the achievements of the Buhari administration in the last eight years.
