2023: Osinbajo’s Declaration For President Immoral, Unethical, Unacceptable – Chieftain Insists
Chieftain Insists says Osinbajo’s Declaration For President Immoral, Unethical, Unacceptable
The erstwhile National Publicity Secretary of the defunct New Peoples Democratic Party, nPDP, and Chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Chief Eze Chukwuemeka Eze, Saturday described Vice President Yemi Osinbajo’s intention to run for the 2023 presidential election as immoral, unethical and unacceptable to the generality of Nigerians
According to him, “Based on the fact that Osinbajo’s mentor, Senator Bola-Ahmed Tinubu, having already declared his interest, regardless of the wobbling condition of his candidature, that as long as Osinbajo is a product of the National Leader of APC, it remains immoral, unethical and unacceptable for Vice President Osinbajo to offer himself to run against his boss whose inputs in his political life need not be overemphasized; contesting for presidency, portrays him as a “betrayer” who is capable of betraying his current Principal, President Muhammadu Buhari, if he mistakenly succeeds to clinch the Presidency, though very much unlikely.”
Chief Eze who alleged that the declaration of the Vice President was a clear tale of “treachery” perpetrated against former Lagos Governor, Bola Ahmed Tinubu added that what the National leader of APC needed at this point from his loyalists, supporters and allies was complete devotion and commitment towards the success of his (Tinubu) political ambition in 2023.
Eze, a member of the APC Legacy Project Media Team explained that although every Nigerian adult who met the requisite constitutional requirements deserved the right to contest an election, however stated that “where such interest threatens public morality and slips below recognized standards of propriety and good taste, people of goodwill owe the public an obligation to bring such oddity to question for public good.”
In a statement issued by Chief Eze, the APC Chieftain stated that after listening to the reasons given by Vice President Osinbajo for choosing to contest next year’s presidential election, he “found it a reasonable obligation as a sane and morally upright Nigerian to alert the world that such declaration depicted political infidelity against his all-time benefactor, Bola Tinubu, who has nurtured a lifelong aspiration for the presidency.”
