The Vice President Prof. Yemi Osinbajo has caused another stir as he made a surprise visit to Luxor barbers in Wuse area in Abuja earlier today.
Osinbajo who visited the saloon to have his hair cut, was greeted warmly by customers and residents of the area who trooped out to welcome him to their neighbourhood.
He advised them to vote wisely as the Buhari-led administration was determined to empower the youths and root out poverty.
Osinbajo also took out time to visit a Suya Spot (skewered slices of meat) in the estate where he patronised the seller.
It would be recalled, that the VP was earlier in the month made an unannounced appearance to the Karu/Yanyan villages of the FCT,a sparts of the door-to-door campaign strategies to woo admirers.
“Because of his honesty, zero tolerance for corruption, Nigeria’s future is secured,” he said
President Muhammadu Buhari’s honesty, integrity and performance in the past three years in office as evidenced in the ability of the administration to do more even when the country is earning less, set him apart from all other contenders for the exalted office.
Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, SAN, stated this at the august visit seems an unusual approach to campaigns, adopting a door-to-door strategy in the two Abuja suburbs of Karu and Nyanya.
Among popular indigents homes visited by the VP are: Alhaji S.K Ahmed’s family in Nyanya and the Jimiko compound in Karu.
No sooner the VP’s Coaster bus arrived in the communities than the people thronged out en-masse in both places, chanting praises of the President and singing party songs.
After meeting both families, Prof. Osinbajo addressed the mammoth crowd and spent time interacting with the excited people who thronged out in their numbers, often fascinated to see him unannounced in their neigbourhoods.
According to the Vice President “for the honest, decent and hardworking Nigerians, Mr President has devoted his life to ensuring that their lives are made better even when it is sometimes not easy to do so.
“All of us are going higher. I want you to believe that President Muhammadu Buhari is going to do even better. We have to create more jobs for all these young people. We have to give our market women credit so that they can do more business; our young people money so that they can do more business.”
Speaking on the President’s concern for the common man, Prof. Osinbajo said, “when he ask us to start the Trader Moni, he said, this is one way by which we can help people to start doing their own business.”
He said Nigeria’s future was brighter with President Buhari on the saddle, noting that no public funds would be stolen under his watch.
“So, I am here to say to you that the future of our country is great. All of you that are here, you are going to see a better Nigeria and that greater Nigeria can only come if the government is honest; If the government is not stealing our money.
“If the government is honest, it will build all the roads in Nigeria, for instance, like we are doing the Lagos-Kano rail and others, now. You can see that with little money we are doing much more because we will not agree to the stealing of our resources.
“We will go forward and we will move forward. It is a bit difficult now because we are building the foundation. When we came into office; We found no savings. Oil which was our biggest earnings, we had earned so much in four years but there was little to show for it. They didn’t build the railway, no roads. So, when we came we decided to first of all do the right thing,” he added.
