‘As you can see the cheerful faces as they welcome me, I am sure it will continue in unity as we go on to try to find solutions to the country’s challenges,’ he said.
In his reaction, Mr Aaron Artimas, the party’s Publicity Secretary in the State, told journalists after the meeting that the Vice President was in the state to seek the support of the delegates to emerge as the party’s presidential flag bearer.
Artimas said Osinbajo was qualified to change the country’s situation for the better, going by his profile and doggedness for governance.
‘The VP’s visit today is to seek our party’s delegates’ support to emerge the presidential flag bearer for the 2023 election.
‘His profile and doggedness for governance have convinced us that he is qualified and can transform Nigeria,’ he said.
Africa Daily News, New York gathered that the Vice President was received at the Danbaba Suntai Airport Jalingo by the State governor Darius Ishaku as well as the Speaker of the State House of Assembly Professor Joseph Albasu Kunini among other state functionaries and party members.
