Vice President Yemi Osinbajo says he will serve with all his “heart and commitment” if Nigerians elect him to lead the country in 2023.
Osinbajo, who is vying for the presidential ticket of the All Progressives Congress (APC), stated this on Wednesday during a visit to Adamawa State, where he met APC delegates ahead of the presidential primaries.
The vice president was received by Governor Umaru Fintiri, other government functionaries and excited people of the state.
Osinbajo, who was in the palace of the Lamido of Adamawa, explained his motive for vying for the nation’s top seat.
“My reason for aspiring for the office of the President of Nigeria is to serve the Nigerian people. I have no other reason or objective except to serve.
“After one has been in office as Vice President for 7 years, I know that God did not give me that opportunity so that I would seat down somewhere and write the history of my service as Vice President.

“It is for the purpose of serving the people, and that is why I am so determined that if God gives me the opportunity to serve, the Nigerian people would realise indeed they have done the right thing by putting me in office because I would serve the country with everything, with all my heart and commitment,” he said.
