3 names have been shortlisted as Osinbajo’s replacement — Fani-Kayode alleges

Former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode, has raised an alarm over plot to replace vice president Yemi Osinbajo.



The former minister alleged that Osinbajo has been begging and lobbying to save his office but his effort is not yielding any result.




He also alleged that names of three people have been shortlisted as replacement for the office of the Vice president.

Kayode said this in a post on his verified twitter handle on Sunday.

Despite all his begging and lobbying I have it on good authority that @ProfOsinbajo is still on his way out. 3 names have been shortlisted as possible replacements. Yemi is as good as gone. He should just pray for a peaceful and scandal-free exit. That is the best he will get.

Meanwhile, the Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo had insisted that he remain loyal to President Muhammadu Buhari.

He said this in a magazine entitled, ‘This is Nigeria’ circulated on Tuesday night during the October 1, 2019 Independence Day Dinner, held at the old Banquet hall of the State House, Abuja.

He said, “Let me first congratulate my boss, President, Muhammadu Buhari; His Excellency and our national leader, Ahmed Bola Tinubu; First Lady and mother of the nation, Dr. Aisha Muhammadu Buhari.



“Also, I celebrate every Nigerian out there on the street trying to make ends meet, not forgetting those who stand out in different areas of human endeavours, home and abroad.

“Fellow Nigerians, be rest assured that President Muhammadu Buhari is totally committed to his promises and the Next Level Agenda. He is the best boss and I find it thrilling to serve Nigeria under him.


“It is only responsible of me to give my unwavering loyalty to President Buhari and Nigeria as I promise to stand by him, while contributing my quota at all times to the growth of Nigeria.

“I call on all well-meaning Nigerians to queue behind President Buhari as he leads us to build a stronger bigger and greater Nigeria.”
